Learning to cross-country ski
Cross-country skiing is a winter sport, which is now popular amongst all age groups. The interplay of technique, strength and stamina can be easily learned with the special cross-country skiing courses of the Arosa Ski School.
There are two different techniques in cross-country skiing, skating and classic and also two different kinds of equipment. We recommend beginners to start with classic cross-country skiing.
- The mountain railway tickets must be booked separately for the lesson.
Cross-country ski equipment can be hired in the following sports shops.
You can opt for classic or skating, depending on your preference.
