10 week courses for children

10-viikon kurssit

In our ski school, children aged 3–12 can start a fun winter hobby in our 10-week ski courses.
For the youngest (3-year-olds), we offer a special 3-week mini course in January. Below you’ll find the 2026 course schedule with daily options. All 10-session courses start in January and continue until March. These longer courses are part of the GrIFK Alpine club’s activities, and all participants also become club members. After the ski school, children can naturally continue in one of the club’s various training groups. More detailed course descriptions can be found on this page.
