Conquer the Scandinavian slopes
Scandinavia is an ideal ski holiday destination because it is close enough to enjoy the flexibility of a car journey that travelling by plane cannot offer. Well-known ski resorts Trysil and Hemsedal in Norway, and Åre, Sälen, and Tänndalen in Sweden, await skiing and snowboarding experiences for both beginners and experts.
Plan your visit to SkiStar ski resorts during Family Weeks! Kids under 7 enjoy free ski school, equipment rental, and lift passes. Available for bookings starting 22.03-13.04.2025; registration in advance on the SkiStar website is required.
It is convenient to head to the ski resorts from Kapellskär port. You can travel at your own pace and rest a bit before the arrival evening après-ski.
