You’ve been skiing or snowboarding for years, but the time has come to teach your children how to hit the slopes. Perhaps you feel that the mountain itself offers a variety of obstacles you may not feel comfortable tackling with a small child. Maybe you want to enjoy a couple days of skiing without having to worry about maintaining a laser-focus on your children. Whatever the reason, when you visit Sunriver this winter, you have the option of ski and snowboarding lessons at Mt. Bachelor for both children and adults.

Group Ski or Snowboarding Lessons at Mt. Bachelor

Mt. Bachelor has a variety of group ski and snowboarding lessons available, which you can book in advance of your Sunriver winter vacation. No matter your, or your child’s, skill level, there’s a lesson to meet your needs. Choose from 2-hour or 5-hour single lessons, which are organized by age group. When you take a group lesson at Mt. Bachelor, you’ll explore the mountain with an instructor and a small group of skiers or snowboarders with similar abilities and age. For two-hour lessons, choose from one of three daily time slots, which meet at the base of the Sunrise lift.

Both lift tickets and lessons can be purchased in advance on the Mt. Bachelor website. Lessons don’t include the cost of a lift ticket, which means all participants must purchase a valid lift ticket or pass separately for their lesson day. For true beginners, Mt. Bachelor offers a “Learning Progression Lift Ticket,” which allows for all-day access to the Little Pine lift at the West Village base area and to the Alpenglow lift at Sunrise.

For group lessons, Mt. Bachelor recommends having reservations 2-4 days in advance. Walk-in lessons are available based on availability. Lessons typically sell out Friday-Sunday and over holiday periods, which means an early reservation is a great idea to save your, or your child’s, spot.

Private Ski or Snowboarding Lessons at Mt. Bachelor

Not really into the group dynamic and want more individual attention? Private ski and snowboarding lessons are available at Mt. Bachelor! Private ski lessons can be done solo or with your entire family. You’ll love accessing the best terrain on the mountain, skipping the lift lines and becoming a successful skier or snowboarder. The ski instructors at Mt. Bachelor are certified by the Professional Ski Instructors of America (PSIA) and have the highest level of experience.

Choose from half day (3-hour) and full day (6-hour) sessions from opening day on November 25, 2022 through April 23, 2023. Mt. Bachelor only offers half-day lessons after April 23 until the end of the season.

Improve Your Skills with Skiing Lessons at Mt. Bachelor

Skiing and snowboarding lessons are popular with all skill levels, as the dedicated time helps people become more skilled riders. From mastering your turns or safely exploring the miles of scenic terrain that Mt. Bachelor is known for, lessons enhance your enjoyment of the whole skiing and snowboarding experience. This winter when you’re visiting Sunriver for a family vacation, consider a private or group lesson for yourself or for the developing rider in your family. If you opt to drop the kids off for their ski lessons and hit the Black Diamonds on your own, that’s possible at Mt. Bachelor.
