LESSONS

BOOK NOW FOR WINTER 2024

Learning to ski and snowboard at Corin Forest is an experience you will never forget. Our ski slope is custom designed to have beginners mastering the basics in no time.

The slope features an easy to use “magic carpet” ski lift and gentle terrain and our enthusiastic instructors will teach you the skills needed to build confidence on the snow. All lessons include everything you need to hit the slopes, a lesson led by one of our professional instructors, and a whole lot of fun on the snow.

All 3 hour* lesson packages include:
  • 2 Hour Instructor Led Lesson
