Highlights

Enjoying the snow

Do you love sports and adventure? And have you already mastered enough basic French to express yourself in short and easy conversations? Then our French-speaking ski holiday in Italy is definitely something for you. In Italy, CLIP plunges into the outside world as much as possible. We do not only ski in one specific area but, in addition to Kronplatz, go to Vals and Sella Ronda (600 km of slopes). We bet that both your French and your ski or snowboard techniques will improve significantly!

Modern hotel with delicious Italian cuisine

Pension Sonnenhof in Raas is a wonderful youth hotel with a vast lounge infrastructure. The rooms are spacious and have their own shower and toilet. The accomodation is centrally located in South Tyrol between Kronplatz and Sella Ronda.

The formula provides full board.
The extensive buffet offers a wide and diverse choice: bread, buns, cereals, jam, choco, yogurt, fresh fruit, cold cuts, cheese, (chocolate) milk, fruit juice, coffee and tea.

In the morning, we prepare our own picnic and take it, together with an afternoon snack, to the slopes.

In the evening, a copious three-course meal awaits us. We start with a commodious salad buffet and a starter (pasta, cheese croquettes, lasagna, soup, risotto...). The main course comprises meat (schnitzel, hamburger...), hot vegetables and potatoes, croquettes, French fries, gratin... We finish the meal with a finger licking dessert : apfelstrudel, tiramisu, pastries, ice cream...

Free skiing and snowboarding

During the day you can ski and snowboard freely. A supervisor will show you around the area and give you tips for the slopes, best adapted to your level. Our own ski instructors will guide beginners from first steps to first slope.

Many ski (and language) formulas are limited to one mountain, which offers only restricted skiing possibilities. For this language camp, CLIP really pulls out all the stops of this amazing area.

During Carnival holidays, we opt for a 6-day ski pass. This way there is enough time on the first day to try on the equipment and get acquainted with one another through fun contact activities. The start of a deep dive into language immersion. At Easter, we opt for a 7-day pass.

We start with Kronplatz where we spend three/four days of skiing and snowboarding. But here's a lot more to come after this appetizer.  For two days we head to Vals - Meranzen and Plose (not at Easter): two charming resorts with blazing sunshine and perfectly groomed slopes.

Top of the bill is the impressive Sella Ronda (one day at spring break, two days at Easter) (more than 600 km of slopes), a huge ski area with stunning views of the Dolomites. You can make it a real marathon and do the circuit around the Sella. Thanks to a unique concatenation of slopes and elevators, you can make a circle without ever doing the same run.

For the more daring there is a snowpark in Kronplatz, a mega project with kickers, rails and boxes for freeriders and snowboarders. There are also several options for less experienced skiers. The new snowpark is one of the largest of its kind.

An absolute asset is the snow guarantee throughout the ski season. Even when the snow has disappeared elsewhere, skiing and snowboarding is still possible here.

Snow depths on the slopes can be found here: Bruneck, Corvara.

On the way back from the ski slopes, we will visit  a typical northern Italian town (Brunico or Brixen)  and soak up local culture. A delicious Italian ice cream is part of this package! This trip to South Tyrol is clearly more than just a sporty journey!

Language immersion French

French is the spoken language  from rising to bedtime. Sufficient prior knowledge of French is assumed.

Entertainment program for 17+

In the evening, there is a separate entertainment program for the 17+, en français of course. With a quiz and a casino, our tutors boost the group spirit. Around midnight we go to bed. That way we keep it safe on the slopes during daytime too.  One night, we go bowling in the neighborhood, relaxing and looking back at the past day.

One day we have après-ski at the foot of the slopes. Another evening we have a drink in a cozy bar in the village.

Top of the bill is the Kronplatz Express. After a day full of mysterious riddles on and around the slopes, we set off on an evening dropping. Who will be the first to find its way back?
