Alpine skiing

Due to the corona situation, there might be restrictions in the Norwegian ski resorts this winter. Do not visit our resorts if you feel unwell or are in quarantine. Make sure you read up on Fnugg’s corona measures in Norwegian ski resorts before you start planning your ski holiday.

Imagine being three years old and skiing down a hillside for the first time. What an adventure! It was at this age one of our greatest alpine heroes, Aksel Lund Svindal, took on his first full day of skiing. The feeling is something he still treasures.

Why skiing in Norway is more than curves and snow

Norway is considered a skiing paradise by many, and not just because of the long season or the great snow conditions. The main reason is that there is something for everybody on offer here. Play in the children’s slopes, cruise down a red piste, or chase the perfect powder further up in the mountains – the important thing is that you have fun when you do it.

You’ll find family-friendly resorts all over the country, and most of them have ski schools and staff who are happy to teach the children to stay on their feet. Common to all facilities is that they work hard to be both safe and enjoyable at the same time. Many resorts have ski lifts literally right on your doorstep – which also means that you can ski all the way back to your room after a long day in the slopes. And after a quick change of clothes, you can lean back and relax with tasty and often local food and drinks in front of you.

The art of snowmaking

In Norway, snowmaking has become increasingly popular and for good reasons. With man-made snow, several resorts are now able to extend the season to late April.

Get your snow fix summer skiing

If you thought that springtime signals the end of the skiing season, remember that there are high-altitude resorts in Norway where you can have fun on snow all summer long.

However, getting an early start is essential. The glaciers can be icy at first but will soften with the first rays of sun to provide hours of good skiing. By about midday, the slopes might turn to slush – a perfect time for a cold beer, a swim and some sunbathing.
