See what our customers had to say about their time at The Snow Centre Hemel Hempstead:
“Great lessons with experienced instructors who put kids and parents at their ease. The lessons were full as it was half term, but each child still didn’t have to wait too long between turns on the slope. It was easy to get and return equipment and the food in the restaurant was great and came promptly.”
“Easy access from M1. Plenty of parking, simple registration, and quick service to collect skis, boots etc. Both lifts serving the main slopes worked faultlessly and although the session was quite busy I felt the slopes were quite free of other skiers classes. I particularly liked the snow conditions and at the end enjoyed the amazing cafè overlooking the slopes. Reasonably priced menu. All told an excellent start to our skiing this year.”
“Very friendly staff. Good, clean facilities and very good prices on lessons lift passes.”
“We booked a beginners group ski lesson for 4 people and we had such a good time. Our ski instructor was Stuart T and from start to finish he was super helpful and encouraging. We would 100% recommend learning with him and are looking forward to going back again so that we can progress further.”

Kids ski coaching classes teach invaluable skills such as handling different types of terrain and identifying any techniques that would benefit from additional focus. Kids ski development coaching makes honing skills fun and exciting for kids of all ages.
During junior lessons, a parent/guardian is required to remain on-site and be in sight of the lesson (where reasonably possible) at all times. This is in case the instructor needs to signal a parent/guardian to come down to attend to their child. Parents/guardians are not allowed to be on the snow with their child, but should be up in the Lodge viewing gallery or adjoining balcony.
Whilst kids will be able to go skiing without supervision after they have completed our kids ski lessons and are older than 10, it is recommended that they take kids ski coaching classes to get the most out of their time on the slopes, developing essential skills, and enjoying the thrill of flying down the Main Slope with our qualified instructors watching over them. To meet the minimum requirements for the Main Slope, they should:
Your children can start the kids' ski coaching classes at the age of four, provided they have completed all the kids' ski lessons and can ski at a competent level. Our kids' ski group lessons are split into two age groups: 4-6 years old and 7-16 years old. All our instructors have undertaken a DBS check and completed a child protection module, as well as all the relevant instructor licence requirements, ensuring they can offer the best skiing experience for your child.
If your child has any specific learning needs, please inform the instructor before their lessons so they can make any necessary adjustments. For any significant needs your child may have, we recommend contacting Disability Snowsports UK or Snowbility, who work closely with The Snow Centre, offering specialist ski lessons for anyone with additional needs or disabilities.
Warm clothing is essential for their kids ski lesson; it's real snow after all. A waterproof jacket and trousers will allow them to enjoy their ski lesson fully; these can be hired from us if needed. Gloves and warm socks can be purchased from us if they don’t have their own. The rest of their equipment is included in the lesson fee.
Whether you’re looking for an adult skiing lesson or looking to give the family a fun day out, our team can handle any and all lessons. If you have any questions about booking an event or any of our services, please contact us, and a member of our team will be happy to help.
