Here, even the youngest skiers can easily hop on conveyor belts, and fun figures help guide them through their first slalom turns. There’s also a sledding hill, a barbecue hut, and a playground for when they need a break.

If the kids still have energy to burn in the evening, you can take them night sledding on the illuminated "Lille-Petter" hill until 9 p.m.

If you’re a beginner yourself, you’ll also take your first ski trips here on the children's area conveyor belt, safely away from the busier slopes.

NB: We take no responsibility for any potential changes to offers at the ski resorts.
