Adaptive Ski Lessons
Inclusive skiing in Saas-Fee
Our adaptive skiing lessons in Saas-Fee are built around the person, not the disability. Before the first session we talk with you about your needs, your experience and your goals, so your instructor can plan the right approach, the right terrain and the right pace.
We are part of Para-Alpine Skiing Saas-Fee, the project that makes skiing in Saas-Fee accessible to people with disabilities. The association provides the adapted equipment, and our lessons are led by instructors trained in adaptive teaching.
Whether it is a first experience on snow or a chance to build independence and skill, our aim is the same: a safe, supportive and joyful day in the mountains.
How it works
- Talk to us. Contact us first, so we can discuss needs, mobility, communication and equipment.
- We plan. We organise the session and the equipment together with Para-Alpine Skiing Saas-Fee.
- On the snow. Your instructor adapts the method, the pace and the terrain, step by step.
- Next steps. We share feedback and suggest how to keep progressing.

Who is it for
Children and adults with disabilities
Adaptive lessons are for children and adults with physical, sensory or cognitive disabilities, from complete beginners to experienced skiers. Family members, carers and friends are welcome to be part of the day.
If you are not sure whether our lessons are right for you, contact us and we will talk it through with you.
What we adapt
Every lesson built around you
No two adaptive lessons are the same. Your instructor adapts every part of the session.
- Pace. Session length and breaks are planned around energy levels, with shorter sessions at the start if needed.
- Terrain. Quiet, gentle slopes to begin with, and new terrain only when you feel ready.
- Communication. Clear, calm instructions adapted to each person, with family members involved if it helps.
- Equipment. Adapted equipment arranged with Para-Alpine Skiing Saas-Fee when it is needed.
