5 Great family Ski Tours in Norway

Embark on a winter adventure with mountain skiing in Norway, where the true winter wonderland awaits. As temperatures drop below freezing, the ski season begins! Mountain skiing offers a fantastic way to explore nature without relying on groomed tracks, bringing you closer to the wilderness.

What Are Mountain Skis?

Mountain skiing is about using your own power to traverse snowy terrains. These skis are designed for all types of snow, providing the freedom to explore untouched landscapes. Different types of mountain skis are available for various activities, from trail skiing to telemarking and summit tours.

Choosing the Right Ski Tours

Avoid long ski tours early in the season. Opt for areas below the tree line where you can retreat to forested areas if the weather worsens. As the season progresses, move to higher mountains and plateaus. Check the weather forecast and inform others of your route.
