Easy access with chairlift to the mountains

With the chairlift, you can quickly reach the top without much effort. From Storenos (1183 m.a.s.l.) you get a magnificent view of the surrounding landscape. On a clear day, may see as far as the Hardangervidda mountain plateau. Storenos is also a great starting point for hiking in the summer/autumn and skiing in the winter.

Hiking in the summer/autumn: There is a marked marked trail that leads north to a viewpoint located 500 meters from the chairlift drop-off. From the viewpoint, you may choose to continue on the blue-marked trail towards Støysskarnuten and then follow the red-marked trail on a dirt road down to Hovden, or to the Sloaros tourist cabin. You may also follow a short blue-marked trail from the viewpoint down to Hovden, or take the gravel road that goes directly down between the ski slopes under the lift.

There are downhill biking trails from Storenos, and bikes can be transported up with the lift.

Tickets for the summer lift to be purchased here.

In case of strong winds or forecasted thunderstorms, the lift will be closed.

Skiing in the winter:

At the top of the ski slope, there are two cross-country ski trails: "Lisle Storenut," which is a 7.5 km circular trail, and "Krossloskaret," which is a loop on the mountain plateau before descending to Hovden. This trail is a total of 12 km long.

During the winter, it is not possible to take the lift back down, so skiing is the only option to descend from the mountain.

It is possible to bring a sled with you on the lift. On Saturdays and during holidays, the sled must be handed in at the lift entrance by 11:00 am.

Tickets are purchased at the ticket office, and a key card is required to load the ticket. If you don't have a key card, you can purchase one together with the ticket. Prices can be found on the website hovdenalpinsenter.no.

Night skiing:

On certain days of the week, the center is open until 9:00 pm. During this time, only the T-bar lift operates, and there is floodlighting in this part of the facility. Night skiing is not included in the day pass and must be purchased separately.
