About Skischule GaPa Michi Brunner
Skischule GaPa, run by Michi Brunner, operates from the Hausberg area of Garmisch-Partenkirchen and pairs ski and snowboard instruction with a full rental service. Billed as Germany's first climate-neutral ski school, it runs on solar power rather than fossil fuels, a point of pride for a business set against the fragile alpine landscape of the Wetterstein range.
The school delivers group and private lessons for children and adults across all ability levels, including a dedicated therapeutic skiing programme for guests with special needs. Lessons can be bundled with on-site equipment rental, so beginners arrive with nothing and leave fully kitted for the slopes. A professional workshop with advanced grinding machines handles ski and snowboard maintenance, and same-day tuning keeps gear running fast through a busy holiday week.
Skischule GaPa stands out for combining genuine teaching pedigree with a sustainability ethos rarely seen in the rental trade. Its Hausberg base puts students close to the beginner-friendly lower slopes while keeping the wider Garmisch-Classic area within easy reach, and the one-roof model of lessons, rental and service makes it an easy choice for first-time visitors who want everything arranged in a single stop.
