Cross-country skate skiing lesson in Klosters- Beginners

Time to try out a new activity! Cross-country skiing is considered one of the healthiest sports. With a little bit of momentum and the use of the poles, almost all muscles of the body are evenly stressed. More than 75 kilometres of skating pistes in Davos Klosters provide boundless variety in a beautiful landscape.

In this 2-hour lesson, you will learn the basics of cross-country skate skiing.

This event is led by Otto van Andel, cross-country skiing instructor.

What’s the plan?

Meet Otto at Diethelmpromenade car park (5 min walk from the train station Klosters Platz) at 09:30. The course finishes around 11:30am.

Requirements

No previous cross-country skiing experience needed.
