This is a stunning action packed winter sports photography course with very affordable travel options. You will have the opportunity to combine shooting either two or three days of the fast action sport of Snow Polo in one of the most beautiful places in Europe - Kitzbühel, Austria. Plus an exclusive stable visit to see and photograph some of the most beautiful white Lipizzaner horses in the world.
Set in the incredible winter playground of the Tyrol, the Snow Polo World Cup 2024 promises to provide some amazing images as eight international teams battle it out for the winners trophy over three days of competition. Fast and spectacular action is guaranteed and this course will have huge appeal to both horse lovers and sports photography enthusiasts alike.
As well as the Snow Polo you will also have the opportunity to photograph some the beautiful white Lipizzaner horses on an exclusive private tour to the beautiful Stanglwirt stables nearby. The stables are stunning as is their indoor riding school. This really is an outstanding course for anyone who loves photographing beautiful horses, both close up and in action. I will be right by your side throughout the course, guiding you through all the technical aspects of photographing action in the snow as well as leading the portrait session at Stanglwirt. Also for the last few years we have been treated to an amazing opportunity to photograph the Lipizzaners running and rolling in the virgin snow !!
This superb course takes place over the weekend of Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th January 2024, plus a Friday option too. It is all possible with late afternoon/evening flights out of London on Friday and an evening flight back on Sunday. Book now and save - flights start from £27 one way.
Kitzbühel is only 1hr 15 minutes by road from Salzburg Airport and 2 hours from Munich Airport. The roads from both airports to Kitzbühel are easy to navigate, safe and fast. Car hire is cheap. Private transfers from the two airports to Kitzbühel are also easy to book and not too expensive. In the past we have shared our air travel plans and travelled as a group from the airports together in a mini-van type taxi which worked out at about £45 each way.
Kitzbühel can be a very expensive place to stay but I have secured some rooms at a nearby 4* hotel at good prices from the 11-14th Jan, at a rate of about £145 per night including breakfast and dinner. These rooms are on a first come first served basis when booking the course.
Neither flights nor accommodation are included in the course fee.
