Geilo

Beginners

A wonderful environment for those skiers at the ‘delicate stage’. Many of the runs are extremely wide and uncrowded; perfect conditions to gain confidence. Ski instructors speak perfect English and have been working with beginners for many years to assure professional service at all times – no surprise then that they have been awarded our Marque of Excellence award two years running.

Intermediates

There are two skiing areas, the north facing Geilolia and new Kikut area and the south facing main ski area immediately behind the village, which has around 75% of the total skiing. Both areas are linked by a free ski bus in the mornings and afternoons. Many of the runs are wide and uncrowded cruising runs on the huge snow fields above the tree-line, ideal for improving your technique. There are also a variety of runs down to the village through the trees.

Advanced

Geilo has five black runs including a couple of testing mogul fields, however the resort does not claim to cater for the aggressive expert skier.

Snowboarding

Geilo has a specially designed terrain park including two excellent snowboard parks and a boarder-cross park, offering half-pipes, super-pipe, jumps and bumps.Geilo is a welcoming resort to both experienced and first-time snowboarders. Private instruction available.
