Ski Areas in Beitostolen
Beitostølen has great range of beginner and intermediate slopes. There are two main ski areas, nine lifts and more than 320km of cross-country tracks. The children's slope, equipped with their own lift, is adjacent to the slopes in the village centre so you're never too far away if your children are having lessons.
One ski pass covers both ski areas (Alpinsenteret and Beitostølen Ski Centre) and the shuttle bus will transfer you between the two.
Accommodation
Skiing in Beitostolen
The slopes here are especially quiet during the week, which means that they’re perfect for beginners looking to learn or those wishing to refine existing skills. For keen skiers, two of the slopes are floodlit on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, extending the day and allowing for a different type of ski experience.
For most people, the best thing about Beitostølen is how quiet the slopes are, children can fly off without parents worrying about losing them.
Snowboarding in Beitostolen
There's a great snowboard park in Beitostølen, with its own lift, plenty of rails for boarders of all levels and a number of jumps (including two large ones). The slopes here are also well-adapted for snowboarders.

Après Ski in Beitostolen
Après ski in Beitostølen is a different experience to that of better-known European resorts, taking a more relaxed and traditional Norwegian approach.
There are beautiful cosy bars for you and your family to relax in after a day on the slopes and, while the town may be relatively small, there's still an excellent choice of bars, restaurants and shops to enjoy.
Non-Skiers
Beitostølen is very well-equipped for tobogganing, with a separate toboggan run and a special lift servicing it. The runs are fast-paced and exhilarating, whether you choose to team up or ride solo.
There's an abundance of activities for the non-skiers in your group, from snow rafting and airboarding to a horse-drawn sleigh ride or husky dog sledding. These are all brilliant ways to experience Beitostølen's beautiful scenery while you're in resort.
