SkiStar Ski School Åre

Åre village, Duved and Åre Björnen; meeting point depends on the booked lesson

Ski LessonsSnowboard Lessons

SkiStar offers group and private ski lessons for children, teenagers and adults, with snowboard teaching also listed in Åre village and Björnen. Lessons meet in Åre village, Duved or Åre Björnen; choose the correct area before booking.

Why we like it

Match the lesson area to where you plan to ski, then check your booking confirmation for the exact meeting point. There can be several meeting places within one sector, so choosing the area first makes the day easier to plan.

Why we like it

Meet at the guide office on Åre Torg to discuss the day’s conditions and route. A private booking lets the guide adapt the level to your group; ski-touring outings are also available.

Åre Skidsport

Åre Torg, Årevägen 88, 837 52 Åre

Rentals

Åre Skidsport rents alpine skis, snowboards, touring/splitboard equipment and telemark gear. Standard and premium choices cater to different experience levels, and the published ski and snowboard packages include helmets. Avalanche equipment can be rented separately.

Why we like it

Useful when a group needs different types of equipment from one provider. Ask about a specific model before booking and arrange collection with the shop; lift passes are purchased through SkiStar.

Pro Tip: Book Early

Lessons and rentals at popular resorts often book up quickly, especially during peak season and holidays. We recommend booking at least 1–2 weeks in advance to secure your preferred times.

Sources & planning context

Historical planning figures · Figures marked * come from earlier references and may differ from current resort figures.

Other names · Are, Aare, Are Ski Resort, Aare Sweden

Compare the kind of instruction or equipment you need. The provider can match your ability, age and dates to a current program.

Åre sectors have separate calendars

Björnen, Duved and Tegefjäll have their own schedules. Late-season skiing may be limited to selected lifts rather than the full destination.
