Skiing in Norway

As the most successful nation to ever compete in the Winter Olympics, it should come as no surprise that the skiing in Norway is absolutely superb and should not be overlooked when considering your next ski holiday. Far quieter than its Alpine rivals, the Norwegian ski resorts offer guests peaceful, uncrowded mountains, state-of-the-art lift systems and a warm welcome from friendly locals.

Not only is the skiing world-class here, but the experiences off-piste are equally impressive. Surrounded by dramatic fjords, majestic mountains and charming villages, a winter holiday here is a truly memorable experience.

One of our favourite times to go skiing in Norway is over the Christmas/New Year period or during the February Half Term and Easter time. Explore options with the family for the consistent snow conditions all season and empty slopes. Whether you are looking for a luxury ski hotel for two or a group getaway for your ski trip to Norway, please call our ski experts for more information.

Our ski experts can help you choose where to ski in Norway. To find out more about the Norwegian ski resorts for your 2024/2025 skiing holiday, please call us today.

Many ski resorts open as early as November and close as late as May. Geilo and Trysil are Ski Solution’s clients’ favourites due to the impeccable ski terrain and stunning scenery. Ski resorts such as Gausta also boast a fascinating history.

The dry snow that Norway experiences means the skiing is unique for Europe, far closer resembling the conditions of North America. Many areas are so confident of their snow quality, that they guarantee your lift pass and will refund you if conditions aren’t up to standard.
