A.L.P.S. - National Skiing Trip
A.L.P.S. - National Skiing Trip
Date: Fr, 22nd of March until Sun, 24th of March 2024
Ever heard of Austria´s national sport?
Damn right, it´s skiing and it would be a pity to have an exchange in our beautiful country without at least having tried to balance yourself on two wooden sticks (or one if you´re on the dark side with the cookies a.k.a. a snowboarder).
This is why ESN Austria created the ESN A.L.P.S - Action - Leisure - Party - Ski for you! However, for us Austrians spending a day on the snowy slopes is only one part of the skiing experience. When the ski lifts close around 04.00 p.m., Austrians often passionately celebrate something called Aprés Ski - something you surely would´nt want to miss out on!
From the 22nd of March until the 24th of March 2024 over 200 exchange students from all over Austria will gather in Mölltal, a true glacier with skiing slopes, to spend an incredible weekend full of skiing, party and fun! Let us show you how we ski.
Don´t miss out on that amazing opportunity & join ESN A.L.P.S. - the peak of your exchange semester!
