Overview

Recommended for: Anyone who wants to enjoy winter without the rush.

Never stood on a board before? Now is the time; Today you will learn to snowboard.

Your first day snowboarding begins with the feeling of taking control—of your board, your body, and your rhythm in the snow. You’ll learn to glide, brake, and make your first turns. You will use muscles you did not even know you had. All this while enjoying the view of the mountains.

Itinerary

Meeting points
Meeting Point in Interlaken or Grindelwald
30 mins

The meeting point is Interlaken or Grindelwald. Your snowboard instructor will be waiting for you there. You will get your board, boots, and helmet; everything will be adjusted to best fit you. Here you also have the chance to rent clothes, gloves and goggles if needed. Then the day begins.

Transfer to Bodmi Arena
30 mins

The drive from Interlaken takes about 30 minutes. From Grindelwald, you are there in just 10 minutes. The Bodmi Arena offers ideal conditions for your start: flat terrain, magic carpet, plenty of space.

Morning: First Gliding Attempts
2.5 hrs

You start with 1 foot attached to the board, adjusting to teh feeling of snow underfoot. Later, you will learn to use your edges to brake, as well as practice getting up safely. Then you continue with body rotation, balance, and board feel. Every progress counts, even the smallest.

Lunch Break
1 hr

Then you have time for yourselves. You can eat outside on the sun terrace at the Bodmi Hotel, have a picnic, or treat yourself at Café 3692. The main thing: relax together, talk, and reflect to gain energy for the afternoon.


Afternoon: Turns, Edges, Flow
2.5 hrs

Now you learn to ride with both feet strapped in and practice to switch edges. You connect your first turns, try the magic carpet, and maybe the T-bar lift. If it fits, a simple blue slope awaits.

Return and Conclusion
15 mins

Finally, there is feedback, a group photo, and time for questions. Then return to the starting point. And you take away not just than tired legs, but a new skill and foundation to progress as a Snowboarder.

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.
