Norway Ski Resorts
Skiing in Norway as you can imagine is plentiful in this beautiful Nordic country. Although the Norway ski resorts are typically quite small with low altitude. However what you’ll find is that they’re great for families and beginners, due to the wide slopes, reliable snow coverage on the piste and typically quieter slopes and queues than more of the popular resorts around Europe.
Norway Ski Resort Features
- Norway ski resorts and the skiing often happens with views of beautiful fjords, forests, and mountains rather than crowded alpine villages.
- Long winters with cold, dry snow mean many resorts run from November to April, some even longer.
- Family-friendly, relaxed, practical and modern infrastructure. Après-ski exists but is usually low-key compared to the Alps.
- Excellent for beginners and intermediates, with growing terrain parks and strong off-piste opportunities.
- Alpine skiing is popular, but cross-country skiing is deeply embedded in Norwegian culture.
