 Safety and Convenience

Kids Kampus is tucked away from Whiteface Mountain's main side providing a unique and safe learning environment; complete with it's own lift and trail system, beautiful log cabin lodge (full of everything you'd expect in a ski lodge), parking and complimentary shuttle service. This is an ideal place for children to learn and provides convenient solutions for families to get the most out of their trip to Whiteface.

Tips:

  • Prepare your child(ren) - if this is your first visit to Kids Kampus, remember that dropping your child off in an unfamiliar place with unfamiliar people can be hard, preparing your child(ren) along with a good breakfast and early arrival can help.
  • Check ski/snowboard gear before arriving (especially if you are borrowing a friend's) make sure it fits and is safe
  • Ski socks are a must - ski boots are plastic and cold – cotton socks can be unsafe for young children (they sell these in the ski shop if you don't have any)
  • Helmets are required for ages 12 and under – don't worry they rent these if you don't have one. (All rental packages include helmets)
  • Keep your child warm and wind/waterproof, make sure they have eyewear (goggles), sunscreen, lip protection, and a neck warmer and label all belongings.
  • Allow plenty of time for paperwork and check-in.
