Workshops | Festival Lenzerheide

The workshops can be booked free of charge and take place in line with the daily programme.

To the dates and registration

First aid

In relation to our winter sports activities, we offer you the opportunity to take part in a specially developed first aid course.
You will learn how to behave correctly in the event of an accident and how to provide effective first aid.
We will also show you how to organise yourself optimally during a helicopter rescue and how to gently remove a casualty from an unfavourable situation in order to hand them over to the organised rescue team.

Avalanche and risk management workshop

Many have already attended this workshop and are enthusiastic.
Here you will deepen your theoretical knowledge of avalanches and combine it directly with practical experience.
During the day, on your guided tour or in the course, you can exchange ideas with the mountain guide, discuss the current avalanche situation and understand the risk management applied in the terrain.

In the evening, we will continue the discussion in the workshop, summarise the experiences made and the different opinions and deepen the most important findings.
In this way, we learn collectively and benefit from the experience of all participants.

Board and ski service

A well-maintained board or pair of skis makes all the difference - for safer riding, better control and more fun in the snow.
In this workshop, you will learn how to professionally care for your material yourself: from correct waxing and edge sanding to small repairs.

Under expert guidance, we will show you step by step how to optimally prepare your equipment and adjust it to different snow and weather conditions.
You can try out all the steps yourself and discuss any questions directly with the expert.

At the end of the workshop, you will not only take home perfectly prepared skis or your board, but also the knowledge you need to keep your equipment in good condition on your own in the future.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us, preferably directly at Jonas or via the Contact form
