Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We visited Zakopane and Nosal happened to be the closest lift to our air Bnb so I booked lessons here. We had 2 groups of adults and a kids lesson (5,3yrs) and all of the instructors were excellent. They were friendly patient and very supportive especially considering we were at very different ability levels.
We thoroughly enjoyed our days at Nosal and would come back again if visiting Zakopane.

We went 2 adults 2 children to Nosal Ski school and had a private lesson for 1 adult and 2 children, which was excellent. Michał Stoch was the instructed and he was very nice cool young guy. The hire of ski boots, helmets, poles for me was very reasonable and the ski pass also reasonable (all 3 things paid for separately) but all at the same facility. We prebooked the skiing lessons szkolastrama@nosal.pl and everything was paid for in cash on the day: Ski passes for 4 was 180 zsolty + equipment hire 100 zsolty + lessons 260 zsolty so a total of 540 zsolty for 4 people (2 hours each) seems to be good value to me. The slope had pull along lifts each side and the slope wasn't too steep. It was February half term holiday and was a little busy at times on the nursery slope but we all enjoyed it and want to go back next year.

Ok, not quite true.
Nosal is one of the few really adequate places for beginners to learn to ski. A green and 3/4 other little blue slopes make a great nursery for the first time skier. Although what I would say is in comparison to other slopes in the area your ski time (length of the slopes) to the price of the pass is high, but the other slopes really aren’t so accommodating to learn on and often have a lot of other experienced skiers joining the slopes from much harder slopes above.
Unfortunately, everyone loves using a beginner as a slalom pole, myself included.
I only talk about price comparison to other slopes in Zakopane, and by no means the rest of the world, which is 400-1000% higher in terms of cost.
1 run is 2.2zl that’s about 0.5€, for someone with experience they can be down in about 10 seconds, for the beginners 1-2 minutes. That’s not a lot of time to learn in. I’d say it’s not the best slope ever to learn in, but they are trying to make the most of what they have.
The artificial snow ensures good coverage, but the low height of the slope (at town level) meant warmer temperatures caused ice to form and made it a lot harder for a nervous newbie to learn. As soon as my friend got a little confident we straight away moved to another slope with much more and softer snow giving her the confidence to jump onto a blue slope knots immediately.
Fries were less that 2€ as was the beer (Pivo) and the hot wine coming in at €3, cant fault those prices for on slope eating and drinking.
Recommend spending a full day there then moving to another resort with blues where you can spend a good 5-10 minutes skiing per run.
As for ski hire, I cannot recommend a good outcome. I chose an offsite ski centre around 50m from the slope and ended up paying 20zl a day, that’s around 15-20zl less than the on-site ski center, but I got what I paid for, unfriendly staff and poorly maintained skis that would of made learning a little harder.
I am an experienced skier who visited this center with a complete novice on her first time ski holiday.

Don't use this company. They robed my money. I Have paid the deposit for a course and they said that they didn't accept my transfer and they sent my money bank. My bank is Revolut and they sent my money to Citibank. Since January I am asking for my money and they didn't send it back. DON'T USE THIS COMPANY. Also, the instructor knew that ny son only spoke English and all the training was in Polish. Where is my money?

We visited zakopane for three days and we didn't know from where to start our hiking, so we choose this mountain. We found it here, but we didn't knew how to get there, so we basically typed in our map, street bulwary słowackiego we followed the small river and we got there. Hiking in the begging is tricky, but with a lot of nice views. We manage to get to the top and we saw everything there. Moreover, after it we went down to other side and we followed path till the end which us leaded to kasprowy wierch cable car. We took 2-3 hours hiking everything.

Like every first time skier spent more time on my back side than on my feet :-) We booked our ski instructor before we went and because we had children with us wanted to make sure we got the right one. Barbara was fantastic and was great the whole day, she arrange ski hire and the lift passes. I know my wife and daughter want to go back and we have already booked for February 2016

Perfect facility for beginners. Not too overcrowded, lots of really good instructors around. Easy access and the hot chocolate and the soup in the cafe are 👍👍👍

we spent 3 days in this site on our first ever ski trip.
this is a great place to start lerning.
the strama ski school is great - we had 2 instructors - Konrad for snowboard and Andy for ski - both of them were great.
the slopes are ideal for beginners.

Lots of nursery slopes and no faster slopes feeding in, so this was perfect for nervous first-timers, as well as for those checking out their ski legs in between hot wine and bowls of beans and sausage. The ski instructors are excellent. Def recommend the one to one tuition, which was 90Pz an hour in Feb 2018. The lift pass and ski hire work out at about £15 per day and it's all done at the ski centre. Even on weekends, there were no queues for the drag lifts, The black run was closed when we were there, which was good to make sure that all the skiers were travelling at around the same speed on the slopes. I can't think of a better resort for getting the kids onto skis safely and inexpensively.

Are the ski lifts only to go up? In other words you have to ski back down? Or you can also go down on them? Thanks

What to do to start skiing ?
Written 11 February 2019
We took s taxi from zakopane to Nosal, it was less then 20 mins journey. You can buy the ski pass and hire ski’s when you get there. They also have ski school/instructors if you want to book lessons. We emailed in advance to book the lessons for our children.

We have booked into a hotel in Zakopane. What is the transport to Nosal from Zakopane like? Often, easy, expensive?
Written 6 October 2016
Go to the PKP bus stop/station, it can be quite hard to navigate and understand, the staff inside the information ticket area are helpful but not the most informed but we managed to understand the Platform 4 was where to stand, wait for a minibus to come to the platform and double check with the driver, ‘Nosal Ski’ if you get the nod get 3zl ready for payment (around 0.69€) and hop on. Recommended to not take skis on, managed to upset a few locals a few days in a row doing that. The driver will generally give you a nod in the mirror when it is your time.
Stay calm and remember, there is logic to the chaos.
