Alpin Skischule Oberstdorf Reviews

Great ski school with really capable ski instructors. Linda has done with her lovely, charming way that our son has learned to ski after a few days, a thousand thanks for that. We will be back!

Super well maintained e-bikes and nice staff. In the next vacation for sure again. The recommended tour was very worthwhile.

Attention with the ski rental!
After I exchanged my rented ski boots because they did not fit me, I observed that I failed to adjust the skis to the shoes again. The ski instructor then tried to adjust the shoes to the skis by hand on the slopes. Unfortunately, I had a skiing accident that day and the binding didn't work - with fatal consequences for my health.
When I came to the ski school after the hospital to pick up my things, nobody came up with the idea of helping me or even taking notice of my serious injury. A terrible experience! So: Always pay attention to the setting of the binding at this ski school!

From me and my sister in law an absolute big compliment for the two wonderful instructive days in the Alpine Ski School Oberstdorf. We would like to especially thank our very friendly and motivated ski instructors Kai and Michi for their patience and commitment. We immediately felt very well. Also the office staff a thank you and nice holidays!

Had a great time carnival with friends. Despite the full ski area, the teacher taught us a lot individually in a very short time. Also worth mentioning was the good food in the Alpe Obersdorf, which we were able to enjoy thanks to the reservation of the places by the ski school.

The ski course with the ski instructor Kai was awesome. He takes enough time for each student, has sense of humor, good food tips and speaks good English! I can only recommend.
The ski school itself is organized supet, the division into the courses is flexible, change during the day is possible. The ski instructors make good assessments of this. The rental was also great.

Highly recommended Alpine Ski School Oberstdorf!!!

They got the best staff and the instructors! I have learnt how to ride snowboard here, also, every time improving my skills when I came here to make courses.
I have also brought my friends here to try it out, turn out that, the ski instructors are all very friendly and professional as well!

They help you find the right group for the course and also know how to steer you to the right, easy and safe way to learn.

I have had other instructor from another ski resorts. But the instructors from the Alpinskischule is the best in the world

Kudos to the ski instructors and staff at the Oberstdorf Alpine Ski School!
My daughter and I were very satisfied on our ski vacation. The borrowed equipment was good, the ski instructors also looked after my daughter very well (thanks Tim) and the grouping and the instruction of my course was really great despite the absolute low season! In the ski school, there was always someone we could approach and we were very well accommodated with our requests.
Was a wonderful holiday in Oberstdorf and the Alpine ski school had a big part in it.
Every time again.

The course itself was quite good, but: the organizational process up to the actual course is absolutely bad. The office is overwhelmed. You should take 1.5 hours !! be there before the course starts. Even when you get there so early you can stand in line forever. We were then addressed unfriendly that we had to go because the course was already gone and we were sent alone without explanation. We had no plan where to go, there was no toilet, and after 2.5 hours of driving I was also prevented from going to the public because everyone was hectic. It was so stressful until the beginning of the course that we had already lost our desire. To top it all, there are over 20 !!! People in a course. It is of course difficult for the teachers to concentrate on everyone.

I attended an adult course (level 3 - red slope) with Martin for 4 days. I am very happy with the course. It was great fun. Unfortunately, the office staff was humorless and stressed. The borrowed material was also quite pasty. The central location of the ski school on the station forecourt (near the bus station) and the nice ski instructors weigh this up again. Therefore, only four stars.

Our two boys (5 and 8 years) have now taken a ski course for 3 days. We can really recommend this ski school. Our children felt well and we parents have passed them with a good feeling to the ski instructors, which is not to be ignored.
At this point a very nice thank you to the Michi and the July. Our boys are looking forward to next year

I'm totally thrilled. From the warm welcome at the reception to the competent teacher Tobi, we learned a lot and had really fun days. Can only recommend the ski school to everyone. Thumbs up!

Wow! Our almost 5 year old took a 2 day ski course with Laura and her girls and he was totally thrilled! The girls are all very nice and after 2 days he can hold up well!
The lunch care was great and there was delicious, balanced food
Thank you, we will definitely be back soon!
Best regards Luis

Children 5 and 6 years had a lot of fun and that's the most important thing. Pizza works great now the children carers (Sina, Caro, Adriane U.v.w.) were very empathic and have taken care of the children. Despite a high number of children, that worked out great. The team was exactly the same for 4 days. We wanted to go out for lunch with our kids, but they preferred to dine with the group. Great for us. Eat stress-free. Price performance is great. At any time again to the Greens

Did a two-day ski course, brought us a lot and, above all, was fun. Thanks to our ski instructor Simon.

Couldn't possibly recommend the entire experience more highly - it was sensational! We had Martin and Stefan as instructors - both great teachers and awesome people! The whole process was highly professional, yet a huge amount of fun. All feedback was individualised and on-point, the progressions were logical and gave everyone the confidence to progress. Everything from the process to the quality of the equipment was great. My partner and I are still buzzing, thanks so much guys!

My six year old kids and I each had a 4 day ski course in different groups. Equipment completely ok. Expiration and friendliness of the staff great. Had fun with the coaches at reasonable group strength.

Always the opportunity to join a stronger / weaker group.

Many thanks also from my children, they thought it was great!

Great ski school! The children's ski school in particular offers a lot of fun learning to ski. We look forward to the next time :-)

I had booked a two-day beginner's course for adults. Thanks to the competent and patient instruction from ski instructor Ben, as well as a small group size, I safely came down the blue slopes at the end of the two days, and not just in the plow but mostly also in parallel ski posture. The practice slopes and blue slopes in the area are very beginner-friendly and good for practicing.
Material can also be borrowed easily for non-course participants.

In March 2020 I attended a ski course as a bloody beginner. As it turned out, I have a lot of respect for skiing and especially on the second day, when I went on the blue piste, I couldn't go down the first two rounds on my own. At this point I would like to praise our ski instructor Mirco, who took great care of the weakest in the group. Despite my fear, I felt well looked after and was able to achieve all of the learning goals at the end of the day. The trainer was very patient, helpful and humorous with weaknesses and setbacks.

I initially booked the course for two days, but I would have had the flexibility to extend the duration of my participation on site.

The course is well designed, the staff friendly and the ski instructors trustworthy. In my next ski vacation I would definitely be there to refresh and learn again!

Almost daily change of ski instructors in the children's ski lessons was very confusing

I borrowed my ski equipment for the first time at the Alpine Ski School. Before, I was always so far in another knowledgeable local ski school. Due to the distance I decided this time for the alpine ski school and would not do this again.

The loan was quite busy, which is basically no problem. Unfortunately, the staff was a bit stressed and therefore rude and not very customer-oriented. It's about the equipment, this is not my main concern.
My skis were badly cut. On the first day this was not really noticed, because the snow conditions were bad, but afterwards it was clear when driving ...
Since I had only rented the skis for three days, I did not insist on new sanding and waxing - which I probably should have done.

Basically, I have not yet learned that a ski school Ski borrow that. Very sad.

I find good layout and also very good, nice ski instructors

Best ski school in Oberstdorf! Ski instructors are all super nice, the Kinderland is great, but also adults have their fun here. No mass processing as in other ski schools, but personally and individually :)

We were completely satisfied, both with the rental and with our snowboard instructor. Lucas has shown a lot of patience and has always encouraged me when I was desperate. Even my friend who has experience could benefit. Keep it up!
Greetings Sheila and Silvio.

The ski course at the Alpine Ski School was a lot of fun for us. The ski instructors Tobi, Kai and Jitka were competent and responded well to the participants. It was taught in small groups, no mass operation. Unfortunately, due to illness, a break had to be taken during the ski course, here the "lost day" could be made up for without problems, for this uncomplicated, accommodating arrangement there is another star!

I have just had the best day after 30 years of not skiing,instructed by the fabulous Marco and Michael ,patient and understanding fabulous guys thankyou xx

Not recommended for ski rental. Basically, the materials supplied were fine, but poorly maintained. Skis were very stiff, I finally had them waxed again at the bottom of the slope. That made a difference, but this shop also made a comment about how the skis were given to me.
When returning skis I also mentioned this, but received no further response from the employee, except 'oh'. And then they moved on to the next customer.

I have always been there in winter for a few years and I am very satisfied!

The ski instructor Martin is particularly recommended! Extremely personable, funny and with the gift of judging people super and giving them positive feedback. He always has a good sense of humor, always provides tips for improvement and is always in a good mood!

At Martin you really learn to ski correctly!

We had booked a beginners course with Julia. A very competent and patient ski instructor. I can fully recommend the Alpin Ski School. The staff in the shop was also friendly.

Me: The ski instructors were all very nice, except for this Felix.

Felix: already or?

Was great

Super ski school. Uncomplicated and nice. Unfortunately on the second day the teacher was not so child-friendly. Too bad. Still happy to come back.

My son and I have been an avid student at the Alpine Ski School for over 11 years. Very nice staff and good ski instructors. Herbert and his son master even difficult situations. We are back this year.

My friend had a beginner ski course with Jonas, which was very nice and accommodating. The price-performance ratio is great and the online registration and contact were very friendly.

I have booked a 2-day beginner ski course. The processing from booking to organizing the equipment was very straightforward and the equipment was great. The two course leaders Nikolas and Luka were very experienced and absolutely top! In short, we will definitely be back ...

I was very satisfied with the ski course (2 days) - helped me a lot!

Short-term online booking worked wonderfully. Staff at the meeting point all around friendly and helpful.
Very nice and knowledgeable ski instructors who took care of every participant. Price / performance highly recommended!

First course 2 days with Timo:
Mega, calm, expertise, experience,
I give 7 out of 5 possible stars.
Thanks Timo
Immediately afterwards 2nd course 2 days with Martin:
Mega, mega, meaeegaaaaaa.
Continued and refined Timo's work.
Funky didactics, always keeping an eye on every student, always giving individual feedback on a regular basis, adapting exercises as needed.
Extremely high level of expertise, immediately recognizes wrong material. In my case, too much flex. Another day harder shoe and 70% increase.

I GIVE 15 STARS FROM 5 POSSIBLE STARS
THANKS MARTIN

In general, the Alpin Ski School has a high level of expertise, mega-friendly, customer-oriented, high course flexibility.

Ski school receives 8 stars from 5 possible stars.

4 days course completed successfully.
Mega Team..many patience, funny, motivating, building from the first second on. To all ski instructors who have brought me out of my depths over and over again (have believed in me) A THANK YOU THANK YOU !!!
I come, thank you, the track down healed ...
I'll keep working and not giving up.

Our boys 8 & 11waren / are absolutely thrilled and had a lot of fun with you.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !

We can only recommend you

Great ski school. Purchased tickets online and now in Oberstdorf a great reception and organization.
But we were especially happy with ski instructor Marco. Marco masters his profession and is super fun.
Marco thanks it was a good course, we learned a lot and especially laughed a lot!

Organizationally uncomplicated. I booked the course on the Internet and paid for it on site.
Very nice and competent snowboard instructor (Sven). He took the time for each participant and taught everyone how to improve his driving technique.

I highly recommend it

A happy hello gen Oberstdorf to the "Greens"! I deliberately chose a family ski school and it was worth it in every respect.

Our children were looked after excellently, felt that every child had just the right person by his side. Our 5 year old raves about Laura, the middle one had Julie and our teen ski instructor Robin. Everyone was challenged but not overwhelmed and went off enthusiastic in the morning. 5 hours without parents? No problem!

A smaller practice area without much "Schicki-Micki" provided in combination with the professional-friendly instructions for a lot of skiing fun and the two big were allowed after half a day on the regular slopes. The youngest continued practicing the pizza diligently and intends to grow quickly.

Also we parents had a lot of fun on 2 days with a cool ski team around ski instructor Kai. He had just the right mix of technology and fun in store. We scrapped our old technology and were astonished as long-time skiers, what is done differently today. Since this was explained and demonstrated in a great way, rapid learning came about!

Also, the borrowed material was first class, value for money top!

We like to come back and promise to drive behind Kai afterwards :-)

We had Roland as a teacher. He represented the ski school for us (my girlfriend and me).
We were more than happy with him and look forward to the next year.

My girlfriend has never been on the ski before. Roland got them fit within 3 days so that we could ride alone from the 4 day.

The equipment was enough for us (we are level 1-2).

Many thanks to the whole team of the Ski School Alpin and especially to Roland!
We hope and wish to see you again next year.

Very flexible, top care, stages the children individually well. Special thanks to Laura, who has managed with much patience to give my reserved daughter the joy of skiing. My daughter is very proud of herself now.

We had a great week with very good courses by Alpinskischule for ourselves and our children! Our experienced children aged 11 and 13 had a great challenging course throughout Kleinwalsertal, we and our two youngest stayed at family mountain Sollereck. Our ski instructor Martin Gennert was great, gave everyone attention and personal feedback after each descent and gives you a lot of confidence, so that you actually get better. In addition, he was nice company, very nice and our children also found him very funny. He seemed to know everyone on the mountain!

Great ski school with great staff! I can only recommend it !!!

We are group of 7 enrolled for 2 days first time adult course. Starting was good, but if you are lacking in your group rather than giving special attention instructors will ignore you until you giveup. I was determined to do well even I practiced extra hours on first day evening on my own. But the second day the instructor made me part of another group who were more experienced rather than making me part of another novice group. I got highly demotivated neither I could spend time with my friends nor learnt skiing, complete disappointment. To the instructors please don't demotivate people if you see someone lacking ask them to train on their weakness on spare time.

An absolute recommendation from me and my family for the Alpine Ski School and the ski rental in Oberstdorf! We have taken various courses according to the different prior knowledge and are particularly impressed by the quality and commitment of the trainers. Each of us has made great strides. The grouping was very appropriate and made each of us feel comfortable. We would particularly like to thank our ski instructors Michl, Roland and Andreas for these wonderful educational, super organized and entertaining days.
