about the race

Ready, steady, go! The races on Saturday and Sunday are the highlight of SKIDS – the snow festival. Skiers between 7 and 15 years compete in different disciplines with their peers from all over Europe. While kids are on their own at the giant slalom, the aim of the parallel event is different: one team, two courses, but one objective: that’s going to be fun!

But winning is not the most important thing. Because – comparable to the Olympic idea: It’s the taking part that counts! Therefore, each participant gets a certificate and a bag filled with surprises.

 Ready, steady, go!
