Junior Adventure
Overview
AGES: 7-12 | SKI & SNOWBOARD | LEVELS 1-4 | 9AM-11AM NON-HOLIDAY | 9AM-1PM HOLIDAY
The earlier kids start skiing and snowboarding, the better. At Whiteface, Junior Adventure participants will learn in a fun setting and gain a lifelong affection for mountain sports, with a focus on developing fundamentals and improving in a non-competitive environment. Children will be grouped according to ability. Reservations and lift tickets are required for all group lessons.
Junior Adventure is offered daily for children 7-12 years old of all beginner to novice+ levels (1-4). Lessons run from 9:00 am – 11:00 am Non-Holiday; and 9:00 am – 1:00 pm Holiday (lunch not included, snack provided during holidays only) at Bear Den Learning Center.
Lessons levels 1-3 include a beginner lift ticket. The Beginner lift ticket is only valid at the Cub & Coyote Carpets and the Falcon Flyer (does not include access to any other lifts). Level 4 lessons includes a full mountain lift ticket, with access to all open lifts and terrain.
Children are grouped by ability. Rentals are not included with lessons. Please plan to arrive at the Bear Den Learning Center at least 1-1.5 hours before your lesson begins to ensure you have enough time for tickets and rentals.
