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.”
Aim to arrive at least 30 minutes before the start time of your lesson to allow ample time for check-in, equipment collection and preparation.

Adult snowboard coaching classes are typically two hours long, allowing for plenty of time on the slopes to practice and hone your skills or pick up some more advanced techniques. Or you can opt for a day snowboarding lesson, then you can enjoy five hours of snowboarding instruction.
Warm clothing is essential for your snowboard lesson; it's real snow after all. A waterproof jacket and trousers will allow you to enjoy your snowboard lesson fully; these can be hired from us if needed. Gloves and warm socks can be purchased from us if you don’t have your own. The rest of your equipment is included in your lesson fee.
No, whilst our adult snowboard coaching sessions are for those who want to master the higher-level snowboarding techniques, these classes are not required if you wish to use the Main Slope unaccompanied. To use the Main Slope without an instructor, you will need to pass our Stage 5 lesson, complete the intermediate lesson stages, or demonstrate controlled turns, stopping, and using the button lift unassisted. You can find out more about our minimum main slope standards here. However, to build confidence on Main Slope and get instruction on adjusting your technique to varying terrain and snow conditions, we do recommend a Stage 6 advanced snowboard lesson.
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.
