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, three or four 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 grey Lipizzaner horses in the world.

Set in the incredible winter playground of the Tyrol, the Snow Polo World Cup 2026 promises to provide some amazing images as eight international teams battle it out for the winners trophy over four 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 grey Lipizzaner horses on an exclusive private tour to the beautiful Stanglwirtstables 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 between Thursday 15th January and Sunday 18th January 2026, plus a Friday and Saturday start option too. 

Kitzbühel is only 1hr 15 minutes by road / train  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 3/4* hotel at good prices from the 15-18th Jan, at a rate of about £120 per night including breakfast. These rooms are on a first come first served basis when booking the course.

 

Neither flights nor accommodation are included in the course fee.
