TRYSIL

Trysil is Norway’s largest ski area with 29 lifts (plus more in planning) and 110km of piste. It has one of the longest ski seasons in Europe, opening early November with skiing until May, and boasts great snow conditions all season long. Another great selling point of Trysil is the quiet slopes and lack of lift queues.

The resort is situated across the Trysilfjellet mountain which provides varied terrain and a variety of slopes around the entire mountain. There are two main villages in the resort. Trysil Tourist Centre (Turistsenteret) provides a great starting point with fantastic beginner zones and an abundance of shops, restaurants and places to stay. The more remote Trysil Mountain Resort (Høyfjellssenteret) has some fantastic green runs, we particularly love the sweeping runs through the trees.

TRYSIL SKI HOLIDAYS

Our ideal day in Trysil
Wake up early to get first lifts and take advantage of the empty pistes. Take F2 up and enjoy the reds or greens back down to the Mountain Resort. When you’re done playing here, take the greens down through the trees to Hogegga. This is one of our favourite areas to ski EVER! Cruise through the trees that are dusted with glistening snow all the way to the chairlift, get H1 up and then take the blues down to Knettsetra for a hot chocolate in a beautifully cosy log cabin. Here you’ll see exactly why Norway is the home of hygge!

Take T9 drag up and then play on the reds down to the Tourist Centre. Take T1 then S1 right to the very top and choose between red or black runs back down to Skyhytta – the perfect place for a lunch stop. After lunch enjoy the chilled green runs through the trees on the farthest side of the mountain before slowly making your way back.

On certain days of the week in Trysil you can go night skiing. A few lifts stay open and flood lights light the piste so you can get as much skiing in as possible! We love finishing a day off by getting in the last runs at twilight and then hitting the spa in the Trysil Mountain Resort.

Other activities

There’s so much more to Trysil than skiing!

• Horse sleigh ride – jump aboard a horse pulled sled for a ride through the forest to a cosy tepee where you’ll enjoy an evening meal
• Dog sledding – the best way to see Trysil’s natural beauty, on a sled led by Siberian and Alaskan huskies!
• Bowling – great evening entertainment after a day on the slopes, enjoy a meal at the American diner too
• Spa day – relax and rejuvenate in the Mountain Resort’s Kulpen Spa with indoor and outdoor pools, hot tubs, saunas and steam rooms
  

Family Skiing

All our Trysil accommodation is ski-in, ski-out which makes life much easier with little ones. There are plenty of places to stop for refreshments and tonnes of extra activities to do as well as skiing. Green runs are everywhere and there are lots of blue runs too. Even the reds and black runs are very wide and well-groomed so confident little ones might even brave a black run by the end of the week!
