Allow the skiing to develop with the whole family and you will have a shared interest for the rest of your life. No one will tire of it!
Who are our instructors?
All our ski and snowboard instructors are certified and quality assured!
Each season at Kläppen Ski Resort we have approximately 30 active ski and snowboard instructors.
As our guest, we are eager to offer you the best winter holiday and this means that when you book a lesson you should know that you can expect the best help. Therefore, all our instructors have undergone certified training, via SLAO, the Swedish Ski Association or the Swedish Outdoor Association. There are three different levels of certification, one national and two international certifications, read about the different certifications a little further down.
What does the certification mean?
The various certifications mean that our instructors have different training and that they work with different levels of skiers and snowboarders. For us, it's important that you as a guest feel safe and that you should know that get an instructor who can help you no matter what your level.
Therefore, it is important that you think about what you want to learn and at what level you are today, before you book a lesson. Then we can make sure you get an instructor with the right skills just for you.
In addition to the certification, we work on a weekly basis with internal training to constantly develop the ski instructors' skills in teaching, leadership and skiing.
Hope we will have the opportunity to go along with you and share our enjoyment for skiing.
We know that our instructors will help you take great steps forward. But perhaps it is the joy and experience on snow that develops most.
