A Festival for Every Freeheeler
The Telemark Festival isn’t just about skiing – it’s a full celebration of freeheel culture. On the slopes, you’ll have access to professional workshops with instructors and telemark trainers from the German Ski Association. From beginners making their first telemark turns to seasoned pros refining technique, there’s a workshop group for everyone.
Off the slopes, the festival offers a lively program of informal meet-ups, après-ski gatherings, and social events where you can connect with telemarkers from across Europe.
Packages to Fit Your Schedule
Whether you want to commit to the full festival or join for just a day, the Telemark Festival 2026 offers flexible options:
-
Multi-day packages for the full Kleinwalsertal experience
-
Single-day packages for those deciding last minute or wanting to try telemark skiing without a long commitment
This flexibility makes the festival perfect for both dedicated telemarkers and newcomers testing the waters.
Off-Piste and Freeride Opportunities
For those who love adventure beyond the groomers, the festival also includes workshops and guided sessions for off-piste skiing and freeriding. With Kleinwalsertal’s varied terrain, you’ll have the chance to explore new lines, improve powder technique, and learn from experienced freeride coaches.
