You can rent Salewa and CT crampons and microspikes from 30 PLN per day. They fit any sports footwear and are light and easy to use – ideal for icy winter trails, for example to Równia pod Śnieżką and up Śnieżka.

Trekking poles are a good addition – they cost 20 PLN per day.

A private lesson with an instructor costs 180 PLN per hour (320 PLN for 2 hours). You can also learn together – for a group of up to 5 people one hour costs 350 PLN in total, so it works out cheaper per person.

The price is the same for children and adults. We teach children from the age of 4. On top of the lesson price you need a ticket for the magic carpet or the lift – it is bought separately. Details in our lesson price list.

No – you buy the ticket separately; the lesson price covers only the instructor. The type and price of the ticket depend on where the lesson takes place: on the beginners' magic carpet or on a lift. When you book, we will tell you where your lessons are planned and which ticket you need.

We teach children from the age of 4. Our instructors are trained to work with the youngest, and the first lessons take place on the magic carpet or a very gentle slope.

Yes. At the bottom station of the Kopa lift you will find Kubusiowy Stok – a magic carpet for beginners, where both children and adults start. The next step is a gentle slope by a two-seater chairlift almost 1 km long.

A lesson hour is 60 minutes, of which 55 minutes are spent learning on the slope. You can book a 1- or 2-hour lesson or a multi-day course. In a private lesson the instructor focuses only on you (or your group) and adapts the pace to your skills.

The easiest way is our booking form or by phone: +48 601 790 570. Booking less than 24 hours before the lesson is possible, but in this so-called express mode the price is higher – call us for details.

• Equipment: if you don't have your own, visit us the day before your lesson – we will take our time to fit skis or a board, boots and poles.
• Clothing: warm layers with a waterproof jacket and trousers, gloves and a neck warmer. If anything is missing, we rent jackets and trousers (100 PLN per set) and gloves (20 PLN).
• Helmet and goggles: a helmet is compulsory for children and teenagers up to 16 in Poland, and we recommend it to everyone. You can rent a helmet for 30 PLN and goggles for 30 PLN.
• For the slope: sunscreen, a warm drink for the children and a good mood.

Be there about 15 minutes before your lesson, already wearing your ski or snowboard boots – that way you use the whole lesson for learning. If you rent equipment, get it fitted the day before. On your first visit with children, allow some extra time.

The school is located in the Karpacz Ski Arena complex at ul. Turystyczna 6, a few metres from the bottom station of the Kopa lift. In the season, especially at weekends and during school holidays, parking spaces fill up quickly and driving here at peak times can be tiresome. That's why we recommend public transport instead of the car – no searching for a space and no stress about being late for your lesson.

• The KarpaczBus town bus stops at "Karpacz KOPA". It runs from Osiedle Skalne, the town centre and Biały Jar, among others. You can find the current timetable on the Karpacz town website (in Polish).
• From Jelenia Góra take bus line 104 to the "Biały Jar" stop on ul. Konstytucji 3 Maja, then change to the KarpaczBus or walk.
• Our bus can take you to the Kopa area – call us to arrange the details: +48 601 790 570.

If you do come by car, allow extra time to find a parking space. Directions are shown on the map on our contact page.

No. Our rental shop will kit you out "from head to toe": skis, board, boots, poles, helmet, goggles and even a jacket and trousers. Specialists choose the equipment to match your height, weight and skills.
