re: 7 yr old kindargarten-additonal sking?

We have our 7 yr old booked into Kindargarten at the Rila. However, he would like to ski with his brother who is 8 and is having separate ski lessons. Is it possible for the 7 yr to do the same, or have to go to Kindara because of insurance etc. or can we book him lessons on top of the kinda or instead of? Any advise much appreciated. Many thanks.

re: 7 yr old kindargarten-additonal sking?

As far as I'm aware children 7+ can take part in ski lessons. They don't need a lift pass until they are 8. As there are 2 of them make sure they get in the sam class and then the older one can look out for himas they will need to be able to buy lunch ( with help from the instructor) and go to the loo unaided - practise with the all in one/sallopettes before you go - worth it believe me!

Hope this helps

Hi - we went to Boro last year. My son was 6 at the time and he went to the Samakov ski school - going again this year and he is booked into ski school. I think it is the tour operators and not the local schools that state that they must be 8.
