Kannabe Beginner Skiing Lessons with Instructor
This tour is available from December to March only.（Depends on snow conditions）
Learn how to ski from an English-speaking instructor!
The Kannabe Highlands become covered with snow in the winter, making for both a picturesque vacation spot and the perfect place to participate in winter sports!
Are you interested in skiing in the Kannabe Highlands but don't have any experience? Have no fear, because at the Kannabe Snow Academy you can take beginner's skiing lessons with an English-speaking instructor! The lessons are at the ski resort called Up Kannabe, which has both gentle and more challenging hills. This activity is perfect for those new to skiing, and perhaps even snow in general.
The instructor will walk you through putting on your ski equipment, as well as teach you how to walk through the snow in your gear and how to get on the ski lift if necessary. Afterwards, you'll move on to learning how to turn and break. The instructor will go at the group's pace, so each lesson is a little bit different!
Enjoy the beautiful snow-covered mountains while skiing!
