Cross-country and mountain skiing

Cross-country and mountain skiing

Myrkdalen’s hilly terrain offers fantastic conditions for cross-country and mountain skiing, whether you’re beginners, have children with you, or are experienced skiers looking for a long trek.

If you’re staying at Myrkdalen Hotel, cross-country skiing experiences await right outside the door. Just across the road, you’ll find the Åmostlia area with a 5 km loop track and around 30 km of groomed trails for classic and skate skiing.

The 5 km loop track is hilly and perfect for both cross-country enthusiasts looking for a challenge and families who want to have a fun day in the snow and enjoy a hot chocolate along the way.

If you haven’t had enough snow fun during the day, the main track is also illuminated most evenings, allowing you to continue skiing after dark.

Connected to Åmostlia are approximately 30 km of groomed trails, offering fantastic nature experiences on mountains and through valleys—and if your legs get tired during the day, you can take the ski bus back from Myrkdalsvatnet in the afternoon.

Mountain skiing on Vikafjellet

If you, like many others, have decided to try mountain skiing, you’ll find endless possibilities on Vikafjellet, the beautiful mountain plateau between Myrkdalen and Vik.

Here you can go on a long trek up to the mountain and enjoy a beautiful view of the Sognefjord, or take the kids for a sled ride on a relatively flat route with few hills in Sendedalen.

If you don’t have your own mountain skis or sled with you in Norway, both can be rented at the ski rental.
