Suggestion for skii schools for begginers in Kirshberg/Kitzbuhel
Hi All,
I am going to Austria for skiing between 23rd -30th December with my six years old daughter, however still I haven't decided the place.
We both are completely stranger to skiing. Today I called up the Skischule Kirchberg for rate. Seems they are cheaper than Kitzbuhel schools i.e. element 3. They quoted me 265 Euro each for six days, excluding equipement hire. Also I don't require to advance booking. I looked on google map and realised there are not many skiing routes around the town. Do the nursery slopes appear on the map?
Also anyone can suggest :
Any reason they are cheap? Any issues with location or quality of instructors? What do I have look for while booking lessons for beginners?
I am looking into other options i.e. Kuhtal, Aplenbach, Soll, but can't decide. There are plenty of choices.
Thanks...

Decided against St Anton?
Kirchberg is a less expensive spot than Kitzbühel so guess that would apply to the ski school too. I cant say I have noticed any nursery slopes at Kirchberg, though I normally ski down to the car park at the Fleckalmbahn rather than to the village itself. I am sure there must be a nursery area, all the various Kitzbühler Alpen resorts are well known as good places to learn. I might be inclined to suggest that Skiwelt (Söll, Scheffau, Brixen & Westendorf) would be slightly better for beginners, there are lots of gentle slopes and all the villages have nursery slopes but the difference with Kitzbühel / Kirchberg is small. Söll has a long tradition of welcoming British folk wanting to learn to ski so is likely to be as good a choice as anywhere

Kirchberh has a nursery slope in the town with a tow BUT there is a lift pass charge whereas Kitzbuhel has some free nursery lifts

Where are you flying to? There may be better options than Kitzbuhel.
