Ski camp
Białka Tatrzańska

Zone4’s first residential ski camp for kids aged 7–14. A week of winter break on the long, varied runs of Kotelnica Białczańska and other Tatra Super Ski resorts — with accommodation, full board, a coach from Warsaw and the instructors you know from Górka Szczęśliwicka. Enrolment opens soon — the interest list hears first.

Coming up

What we can reveal already

Dates: both break weeks

Two 7-night sessions during the Mazovian winter break: 30.01–6.02.2027 and 6–13.02.2027. Pick the week that suits your family.

For kids aged 7–14

A kids-only camp — no parents. Training groups are split by level, not by age: from the first snowplough to confident parallel turns.

Kotelnica and Tatra Super Ski

Our base is Kotelnica Białczańska — the biggest station in the Podhale region. When the queues there are long, our coach takes the group to another Tatra Super Ski resort — the pass works in all of them (list below).

Board and lodging

DW Halina in Biały Dunajec — a guest house for groups, about 25 minutes by coach from Kotelnica: rooms with bathrooms, breakfast and dinner, a packed lunch for the slope and two rooms for evening activities.

Zone4 staff

The same instructors the kids know from Górka Szczęśliwicka and our day camps. 8 staff for 41 kids: a camp leader, 3 carers and 4 instructors, with round-the-clock care.

Price and enrolment — soon

We are planning an all-inclusive formula: transport, accommodation, meals, a Tatra Super Ski pass, training and care. The price and enrolment date will be announced shortly.

Where we ski

Kotelnica and the Tatra Super Ski resorts

We train mostly at Kotelnica Białczańska. The Tatra Super Ski pass, however, works at 15 stations on the Polish side of the Tatras — so we do not lose a day in queues: on the busiest days we go where it is quieter and the snow is better.

Important

We choose the resort each morning depending on queues and conditions — not every day is spent at Kotelnica. Our coach takes us to every slope.

Where we stay

DW Halina in Biały Dunajec

A guest house for groups, popular with organisers of summer and winter camps. It sits on the Zakopane road between Nowy Targ and Zakopane: 10 km to Krupówki and about 25 minutes by coach to Kotelnica. During the session the whole camp lives here — kids and staff together.

ul. Jana Pawła II 24A, 34-425 Biały Dunajec, PolandGuest house website

Rooms with bathrooms

We plan the rooms so that kids stay with friends of their age.

Home cooking

The hostess cooks breakfast and dinner, and the kids get a packed lunch for the slope.

Fireplace room

Two rooms for evening games, entertainment and exercises.

Billiards and ping-⁠pong

A pool table and table tennis for evenings and breaks.

Ski room

Space for skis and boots — the gear dries overnight and is ready in the morning.

Garden and terrace

Grounds around the house with a garden, a terrace and a barbecue spot.

Coach parking

The coach is parked at the centre and takes us to the slopes every day.

Education board rules

The building has the fire-safety approval required to register a children’s camp.

Beyond skiing

Evenings, thermal baths and Zakopane

The room with a fireplace at our centre

Evenings at the centre

Games, entertainment with our carers and general exercises — stretching and recovery after a day on skis, in the room with the fireplace.

Terma Bania in Białka Tatrzańska in winter

An evening at the thermal baths

One evening we go to the thermal baths. We are planning Terma Bania in Białka: water slides, a lazy river and a wave pool, plus a shallow pool for the youngest.

Krupówki street in Zakopane on a winter evening

A trip to Zakopane

A walk along Krupówki, the funicular up Gubałówka with a view of the Tatras and oscypek cheese on the promenade. In bad weather — the ice rink or the parrot house.

Who we are

Zone4 — the school you know from Górka Szczęśliwicka

For more than 8 years we have been teaching kids to ski and skate in Warsaw — in winter on Górka Szczęśliwicka, in summer in Szczęśliwicki Park. The camp is run by the same team that leads lessons, training sessions and day camps all year round.

Figures from our booking system and participant lists, as of October 2026.

Skis in winter, skates in summer

One team guides the kids all year — we know each child’s progress from Górka, our day camps and training.

Photos as we go

Our staff take photos on the slopes and at the centre, and parents receive them during the session — as at our day camps.

Groups by level

We set the groups after the first run, and during the week a child can move to a faster or calmer group.

Races to finish

On the last day we are planning a timed slalom — every child goes home with a certificate.

Safety

Peace of mind for parents

Sending a child away without parents takes trust — and trust has to be earned. This is how we keep the kids safe, from leaving Warsaw to coming back.

Child protection standards

We follow child protection standards, required by Polish law since 2024: clear rules for how staff relate to children, response procedures and a person responsible for them.

Vetted staff

Every member of staff holds a clean criminal record certificate and is checked against the national sex offender register. Instructors are PZN-licensed; the camp leader and carers hold the required qualifications.

Registered camp

The camp is registered in the national Recreation Database: the education board knows the dates, programme, staff and venue, and may inspect them.

Trusted coach company

We travel with a trusted coach company from Mazovia. Before departure the coach is inspected by the police, and the driver gets proper rest.

Safe on the slopes

Kids ski in helmets (mandatory under 16), in groups always supervised by an instructor, on runs matched to their level.

Care around the clock

8 staff for 41 kids. Carers live with the children at the centre, the camp leader is reachable by phone all week, and the hospital in Zakopane is about 20 minutes away.

Why a camp rather than single trips?

Six days of skiing in a row does more for technique than a whole season of weekend outings.

Fast progress

Daily skiing without week-long gaps — habits consolidate day by day, and the difference shows as soon as the first session ends.

Bigger slopes

The long, varied runs of Kotelnica are a natural next step after Górka Szczęśliwicka — kids learn to ride changing terrain and read the slope.

Independence and team spirit

Shared rooms, meals and evening activities — kids come back with new friendships and a healthy dose of independence.

Safe organisation

A winter camp registered with the education board, qualified staff and training groups under constant care — logistics entirely on us.

Ski camp — FAQ

When does the ski camp take place?

During the Mazovian winter school break 2027, in two 7-night sessions: 30.01–6.02.2027 and 6–13.02.2027. You pick one of the sessions when signing up.

What ages can join?

The camp is for children aged 7–14. Children who prefer sleeping at home are welcome at our winter day camps in Warsaw (ages 6–12; join the interest list for the 2027 winter break). With a younger child, come on our family trip to Schladming — we teach children there from the age of 4.

Does my child need to ski already?

No. Training groups are split by level — from the very first steps on skis to polishing parallel turns. Every child trains at their own pace.

Where do we ski and sleep?

We stay at DW Halina in Biały Dunajec, on the Zakopane road between Nowy Targ and Zakopane — full board with a packed lunch for the slope. Our ski base is Kotelnica Białczańska (about 25 minutes by coach), and the Tatra Super Ski pass also covers other Podhale resorts — when queues are long, we go where it is quieter. See the map with travel times above.

Who looks after the children?

Each session has a camp leader, 3 carers and 4 instructors — 8 adults for 41 children. All staff hold a clean criminal record certificate and are checked against the national sex offender register, and the camp is registered with the education board.

How do we stay in touch with our child?

The camp leader is reachable by phone throughout the session, and we send parents photos from the slopes and the centre as we go — just like at our day camps.

What do we do besides skiing?

In the evenings: games, entertainment and exercises with our carers. One evening we go to thermal baths (we are planning Terma Bania in Białka), and during the session we also visit Zakopane — Krupówki street and the funicular up Gubałówka.

What will the price include?

We are planning an all-inclusive formula: coach transport from Warsaw, accommodation, full board, a Tatra Super Ski pass, daily training and round-the-clock care. Details and the price will be announced when enrolment starts.

How do I sign my child up?

Enrolment has not opened yet. Join the interest list on this page — people on the list hear first and can sign up before the open enrolment.

We will share what we know, help you pick a session and add you to the interest list.
