Summer is just around the corner and in Hemsedal SkiStar and the whole destination are ready for another season with lots of visitors and a wide range of activities and events. Here are full details of things to do and tips for making your mountain experience memorable this summer.
Opening 1 July
Lift-accessed biking and activities in the mountains
The Hollvin Express summerlift opens on 1 July. From the top of the lift you can now ride a continuous, 8-kilometre flow trail – one of Scandinavia's longest and most varied. The flow trail is named Silverstone.
There is also a new flow trail for those eager to just stay in the mountain, with a 2.5 km trail round-trip starting from the Fjellcafé.
The Mountain Cart from the top of the Hollvin Express is also a popular activity for young and old alike. Open every day when the lift is running.
Try climbing and rappelling. The adults can also help with safety. The climbingroute difficulties varies and the rappel is down a 25-metre rock face. The climbing area is located in the heart of the Ski Centre right next to the Fjellcafé.
