Niederau Begiiners Lift Pass Advice Please

Hello all need some advice please. Off to to Niederau as a party of 11 including 3 children ages 8, 5 and 3 on 21st February. So all but the 3 year old will be ski-ing, 6 of the adults being newbies ... So have booked all equipment hire online for everyone and also going to book ski school directly for the 6 beginner adults and 2 beginner kids, spoke with them on the phone today and they were very helpful. One thing we didn't ask is about lift passes. Was looking to buy 6 day passses for everyone bar the 5 year old (free when with an adult I think?) but for the beginners is a 6 day pass a waste? From what I can gather for the first two days of ski school on the nursery slopes no passes will be needed - is this correct? I.e. just buy 4 days passes starting on the third day of skiing? Thanks for any advice on this or on anything else Niederau based! Cheers people! :D

welcome to the forum. there are lots of niederau experts on this forum so I am sure someone will reply.

We are going there in 2 weeks. What did they say about the ski school as we were just going to book when we got there. did they allow you to book the ski school already?

Hi Jenno,

For the free skiers, a 6 day pass is 150.40 Euro. Should you arrive early, you can buy your lift pass from 3.00pm and use it immediately. (ie six and a quarter days, for the price of six days)

For those who are beginners, you will not normally require a lift pass on the first day. Just start your classes, and at the end of the days classes, the instructor will tell you if you need a pass starting from the next day.



For the beginners:

5 day pass ~ Adults 131 Eu, children born 1990-92,104.8 Eu, children born 1993-2002, 78.60 Eu.

4 day pass ~ for the same categories, 110.40, 88.20, 66.20 Euros

The lift pass office is to the 10m left of the Gondola base station.

Thanks for the information Dave that's great. Karen, the ski school e-mailed me today and said is fine just to book the ski school when you're there which I think is what you've been told too so looks like it's fine just to do that.
