Hemsedal resembles more the Alps than Norway with its rugged,
unspoilt mountains peaking at 1500 metres. But it’s the variety and
diversity of terrain, combined with an
excellent snow record that make
Hemsedal so popular. There’s a surprising variety of runs to enjoy
including well-groomed blues and reds across huge, open bowls and
picturesque forested slopes, plus endless off-piste opportunities to
challenge.
It’s also a
great place to learn, with its dedicated beginners’ area
and professional ski school. It’s not just downhill either, with over
220km of cross country trails both at resort level and above the
tree-line and a world class terrain park attracting pro-riders from
across Europe.
Although quieter and relaxed during the week, Hemsedal’s bars and clubs
really liven up at the weekend and during public holidays for après-ski
the Scandinavian way. The resort has two main centres; Hemsedal Ski
Centre, situated at the base of the ski area so the most convenient
base for quick access to the slopes, and Hemsedal town centre,
approximately 3km from the base of the slopes and the place to be for
après-ski.
