SOFA SKI CAMPS Ischgl are ski improvement camps for all skiers from intermediate to expert. They are aimed at skiers that start to struggle in less groomed conditions and look for an introduction to off-piste, at skiers that want to improve their carving and short turns, as well as at experienced off-piste skiers that want to become stronger and more confident in steep and challenging terrain. We will spend a lot of time training on groomed runs, working on our basics and improving skills that we will then transfer to the slightly more challenging situation.
Klaus will put together teams of max 6 skiers of similar ability that will train together towards their goals. It is our goal to give you the tools and the understanding to self-coach yourself in the time after the camp, so you can improve most in the mid and long term. We aim to create a fun environment in which everybody feels comfortable and safe and is motivated to train hard.
TOP COACHING + PREMIUM GUIDING: The amazing team of the Silvretta Guides will make sure that you will get the most out of the vast terrain in the Ischgl/Galtür area and that you will have an unforgettable time skiing one of the biggest and best ski areas in Austria. All coaches are experienced, fully certified Austrian ski instructors that will give their very best to help you reach your goals.
In our spring camps we also offer the option to do a ski tour on one of the days. No worries if you have never done a ski tour before, we will organise your rental equipment and an appropriate route for you and your group. If we do a ski tour will depend on weather, conditions, training progress and the wishes of the group.
DATES: Ischgl/Galtür is famous for its early snow and great spring conditions due to its elevation (1400m-3000m), More than 1200 snow guns and one of the most comprehensive grooming systems in the world. There are 45 lifts and 239 km of groomed slopes as well as unlimited off piste terrain. So far we were rewarded with amazing conditions and uncrowded slopes in every single one of our Ischgl camps that we ran so far. More info: ischgl.com
TWO COACHES: As in every SOFA SKI CAMP the coaches will be equipped with Camcorder, GoPro, tablet and UClear helmet intercoms. To make sure that you get the best of both worlds, Klaus will move from group to group as a second coach and tail guide.
Each group has times with two coaches, which gives us completely new possibilities for filming as well as coaching.
SOCIAL: One my favourite things about this camp is that all participants will stay in the same hotel, where we will do daily Video sessions after the skiing as well as other activities like the popular Yoga Sessions with Emily.
Hotel Luggi is run by Marina and Patrik Walter, who also runs the Silvretta Guides together with Roland Walter. The hotel builds our base and is a wonderful place to come back to, to recharge and recover after a day of skiing hard.

SOFA SKI CAMPS Ischgl were founded by Daniel Salner and Klaus Mair. In October 2023 Daniel died in a car accident. Daniel has worked as a ski instructor in Austria, Australia and in New Zealand where he coached SOFA SKI CAMPS for three years. This is also where he met his wife Emily, who now lives in Galtür and runs the popular Yoga Sessions for camp participants. With our Ischgl Camps we bring skiers from all over the world to Galtür, some have skied with Daniel in the Southern Hemisphere and it is our mission to do the best job possible to make our friend proud. Thank you Daniel! ♥️
