Adaptive & assisted skiing for people with disabilities

Skiing means freedom, self-confidence, and joie of life. As part of our inclusive winter sports program, we offer accompanied and assisted skiing for people with physical and/or mental disabilities.

Freizeit-PSO provides suitable adaptive sports equipment (e.g., monoski, bi-ski, crutch ski, ski links) and is supported by experienced, specially trained guides. Our focus is on safety, individual care, and a positive leisure experience—tailored to the personal abilities of the participants. This makes barrier-free winter sports activities a truly memorable experience.

Note: Freizeit-PSO is not a ski school and does not offer ski lessons in accordance with state ski school laws. The winter sports activities offered are part of supervised leisure and club activities.

Who we are here for

Children, young people, and adults with a wide range of physical and/or mental disabilities, as well as their families and friends. Freizeit-PSO’s activities are open to people with disabilities of all ages. Participation takes place within the framework of supervised leisure activities and takes into account the individual requirements of the participants.

Individual support

All activities are supervised by an interdisciplinary team consisting of social, sports, special, and experiential educators, as well as experienced leisure and outdoor guides. Our team is complemented by dedicated helpers and interns who support our participants with heart and expertise.
