Itinerary
Meeting points Meeting point in Interlaken or Grindelwald
Meeting point is either Interlaken or Grindelwald. Your snowboard instructor welcomes you, gives you boots, helmet, and board. Together you check that everything fits. Then depart towards the Bodmi Arena.
Transfer to the Bodmi Arena
The ride takes around 30 minutes from Interlaken. From Grindelwald, it is just a short hop. The Bodmi Arena is quietly located near the heart of Grindelwald and offers perfect conditions for your snowboarding start.
First moves on the board.
You start with gliding and stopping on the heel edge. Then it is time for standing up, body control, balance. All on safe terrain, with clear instructions and no stress.
Return and conclusion
At the end, there is honest feedback, maybe a group photo in the snow, and then the return to the starting point. You will leave with the feeling of having started something new.

Weather info
General weather info
Weather can influence any tour, and a clear decision is often only possible on the day itself. We review conditions carefully and remain within our safety limits, and bad weather alone does not mean we have to stop.
Make sure we can reach you with current contact information in case your booking changes. Silence from us means your tour is still planned or the final call is not yet made. If we need to cancel, you can rebook, choose another activity, or get a full refund.
