Information

Alpine Skiing

Idre Fjäll is one of the largest ski resorts in Sweden and has 40 slopes of various difficulties for alpine skiing, all of which can be reached with the same lifts. Once on the top, you'll be able to ski in four directions. In order to access the slopes and the lifts you'll need passes that can be obtained at the tourist office, at Idre Fjäll reception and at some local businesses. Ski lessons are available for both children and adults.

Skiing on Fjätervålen

Fjätervålen mountain is where both beginners and advanced skiers find their delight. The vastness of the skiing area relative to the number of guests means it never feels crowded, and the slopes don't get overused. Perfect for smooth carving, but also a favourite spot for many alpine clubs for training and competitions. The slopes meet international FIS norms for slalom, giant slalom, and women's super-G. The fact that all slopes converge in one place is a definite advantage. Everyone can ski their favourite slope, but it's always easy to find each other again at the foot of the mountain.
