Paul Clark

Very professional company. My wife and children had 4 three hours sessions with Anna who was very accommodating and patient, couldn't have asked for more. I had a single lesson with Paloma who gave me some excellent advice and corrected many faults with my skiing technique. I was able to build on this for the rest of the week. Based on our experience I would confidently recommend this company.

Carly McCready

I booked a lesson here, and they called to let me know that all the beginner slopes were closed so it didn’t make sense for me to come, and gave me a refund. I really appreciate their honesty and look forward to coming back another time 😀

Catriona Lloyd

I have just had 3 wonderful morning lessons with Anna from Ski Zenit! Such a brilliant experience - Anna is so patient and helpful, flexible and kind! I couldn’t have asked for a better ski instructor and I really felt I improved a lot. Thank you Ski Zenit for being such a great team and to Anna for being such a great ski instructor! Till next year now!

Lizzie Lloyd

The Ski Zenit team are fantastic! Stefano, Anna, Rich and the whole team are so warm, friendly, and patient, no matter what your level is (from experienced backcountry guiding to beginner lessons on piste). Cannot recommend them enough!

Alex Costello

Originally booked two half day lessons with Rich, who was a brilliant instructor. I had never been skiing before but Rich took me through everything at my own pace and was flexible with the arrangements. Booked an additional half day which ended a great few days learning to ski. Would highly recommend!

Robert Glauerdt

The best ski school we’ve ever been to. Super fun lessons for the boys, who especially loved the moguls, off piste and jump park sessions. Separately Ski Zenit is the go to place for ski touring and free rides in Grimentz. Experienced guides will take you to amazing places in this wonderful valley. The guides know the terrain inside out and find powder where it is hiding (but always feeling safe with them). So many possibilities here if you know where to go.

Bertrand THOURAUD

Super cours d’Erwin (pour les deux enfants) Pas seulement sur la technique mais aussi sur le fait qu’il apprenne beaucoup sur la montagne, la géographie, etc… Excellent prof et très sympa en plus, ce qui ne gâche rien. Le plus: un contact WhatsApp la veille du premier cours et un échange constant et bienveillant lors de la semaine!

Marianne De Clerck

An unforgettable Skiing experience with Ski Zenit! I had the absolute pleasure of taking private lessons with Ski Zenit for two weeks, and I cannot recommend them enough !! From the very first session, I was blown away by the professionalism, passion, and dedication of the instructors. A huge thank you Xavi, Erwinio, and Richy Rich - these incredible coaches reignited my love for skiing. Their patience, clear explanations, and personalized approach made all the difference. Ski Zenit is truly Top-notch, and if you’re looking for an exceptional ski school with instructors who genuinely care about your progress, look no further. This experience has been beyond my expectations, and I’m already looking forward to coming back. ! Highly recommended 🎿❄️

Arron S

We used Rich and his team at Ski Zenit to teach our young children how to ski during a family ski holiday to Grimentz. I cannot recommend them highly enough. All the instructors were exceptional with the children. Professional, courteous, polite, and FUN! We felt very comfortable leaving our children in the very capable hands of the Ski Zenit instructors. Rich went out of his way to accommodate our schedule and requirements which made our overall ski experience wonderful. At the end of the week, the instructors presented our kids with medals and a photo certificate to remember their first ski experience. A big "THANK YOU" to Rich, Anna, Renata, Serena and Juan - you were AWESOME!

César Domínguez

We are quite happy to see how much progress our kid has done with only a few classes. Erwin is a great teacher and together with my kid they make a nice team :). Thanks for everything!!!

Most frequent questions & answers
FAQ

Grimentz-Zinal is a high-altitude resort, so temperatures can be quite low, particularly in January. Like all mountain resorts, the weather is hard to predict, but March and April generally tend to be sunnier months.

Private lessons are available for booking in English, German, French, Dutch, Spanish, and other languages depending on availability.

In a mountain setting, the weather can shift rapidly and frequently. We suggest dressing in multiple layers so you can easily add or remove them to stay comfortable. You’ll need a waterproof jacket and pants, along with a helmet or hat, gloves, and protective eyewear like goggles or sunglasses. For snowy or foggy conditions, lenses in yellow or pink are ideal for low light. Children under 16 taking lessons must wear a helmet. While it’s not mandatory for adults, it is strongly advised.

Grimentz and Zinal have several restaurants around the mountain, ranging from self-service to full-service gourmet meals. We are happy to book restaurants on your behalf. If you would like us to do this, please inform the office or your instructor at least one day in advance.

Both Grimentz and Zinal have several ski rental shops offering a range of equipment for visitors. However, we strongly recommend Valsport in Grimentz because of their excellent product quality and exceptional customer service. Their experienced staff make sure you find the perfect fit and the right gear to improve your skiing experience.

We can provide private ski lessons for children starting at just 3 years old. This enables very young beginners to receive personalized instruction suited to their age and skill level. For the little ones, we offer special lesson formats designed to match their age and physical abilities.

If you have booked private lessons, our instructors can meet you at various locations within the resort. Usually, we meet at the top of the Bendola cable car. However, please confirm your meeting point with the office when booking. The instructor will contact you directly to ensure the meeting time and place run smoothly.
