Davos season opening


FACTS

Ski Resort: Davos, Switzerland

When: December 11–13, 2026

Registration opens: October 15, 2026, at 10 a.m.

Servus and Griaß Enk.

This time our journey takes us to the world-famous Davos in the canton of Graubünden. The highest town in Europe is not only known for the annual World Economic Forum, but also as a real Eldorado for winter sports enthusiasts. Endless downhill runs, around 97 kilometers of pistes and a funicular railroad that has been taking winter sports enthusiasts up to the heights since the very beginning of skiing: skiing on Parsenn is the high alpine classic par excellence.

Our course will take you to Parsenn, where you can glide down into the valley from an altitude of over 2,800 meters on a variety of red and black runs. If you prefer a more leisurely approach, you will find ideal conditions on wide blue slopes. A large area for all beginners at over 2,000 meters as well as snow parks, various huts and an awesome view are among the reasons why Davos is worth a visit.


Ski and snowboard course

Our concept? Skiing and snowboarding for everyone! Whether for absolute beginners, graceful snow virtuosos, adrenaline-fueled black skiers or simply relaxed ski and snowboard enthusiasts... Our licensed ski and snowboard instructors are ready to pick you up at your skill level and help you improve it. Lessons are offered for at least half a day on the three days in ability or inclination groups, which are put together the day before according to ability level. The inclination groups take place on Sunday and, depending on the weather and group interest, the following inclination groups could be offered, for example: Formation skiing, individual error correction, piste tricks, carving, etc.


Accommodation and supporting program

Our accommodation is the Sportclub Schweizerhaus in Klosters-Dorf. The bus station and the Davos Bergbähnli train station are right outside the front door, which takes us to the Gotschnaboden valley station in 6 minutes.

The house offers everything we need: cozy rooms, a lounge to sit together, a large dining room, sauna in the basement and a games room with table football and table tennis.

Our on-site team is always there for you and a free social program offers you the opportunity to connect with the other participants. We start the winter season together with you and want to celebrate the shared joy of snow sports in style. Always with an eye on the slopes the next day, of course!

FAQ: How to Get to Davos

On Thursday evening (December 10, 2026), we’ll depart by tour bus. After a brief stop in Landau, we’ll head to Davos together. We’ll arrive on Friday morning, when we’ll dive right into a full day of skiing. So, off the bus, put on your skis or snowboards, and let’s go!

Sure! We have lots of certified ski and snowboard instructors who will teach you how to ski and snowboard from the ground up.

We offer on-site courses for every skill level. We divide these into the categories “Beginner,” “Slightly Advanced,” “Advanced,” and “Expert.”


Beginner: You’ve never been on skis or a snowboard before and want to learn everything from scratch.

Slightly Advanced: You’ve skied or snowboarded before, but you’re not yet 100% confident on the slopes. You can already turn and brake, but it doesn’t quite feel smooth yet.

Advanced: You feel comfortable on skis or a snowboard, can ski down any run with ease, and would describe yourself as a confident skier or snowboarder, but you still have room to improve.

Expert: Skiing or snowboarding is totally your thing. You’re familiar with carving and riding switch. You’ve got the slopes under control—no terrain is too challenging for you. You pay attention to the finer details: How can I improve my skills even further, or what new trick can I learn?

Still not sure which group you belong in? No problem! Our ski and snowboard instructors will assess your skills on-site and help you find the right group.

Basically, you’ll need warm, water-repellent clothing. This includes, for example, thermal underwear, as well as a ski or snowboard jacket, pants, and gloves. In addition to your regular “clothing,” you’ll also need a suitable helmet. Feel free to bring your own equipment—such as skis, snowboards, boots, and poles—if you have any. Otherwise, you can rent equipment on-site.

We also recommend that you wear a back protector.

You’ll learn everything else at the pre-event briefing on November 25, 2026.

We definitely recommend that you get liability insurance. In addition, you might want to consider getting international health insurance and, optionally, accident insurance. For example, some insurance coverage is already included with membership in the German Alpine Club.

Our cancellation policy applies. If we are able to fill your spot, we will refund the full cost minus a processing fee of 25€.
