Beginners
For complete beginners we recommend the rolling slopes at Duved and the
gentle runs at Årebjörnen for plenty of easy skiing and confidence
building. All areas offer excellent ski school tuition with
English-speaking instructors who instill confidence and encourage you
to find your ski legs in no time at all. Beginners staying in Åre
village will meet for ski school at the nursery slopes of Rodkullen, a
15 minute ride on the free ski bus. Beginners staying in Tegefjall will
begin on the nursery slopes in Duved, a 5 minute bus ride away.
Intermediates
The east and south facing runs at Tegefjall offer long cruising
descents, ideal for the intermediate skier and those of Mullfjallet in
Duved are an intermediate skiers dream. For more of a challenge head to
the Åre Centre ski area.
Advanced
There are a number of steep runs including the famous World Cup run. On
the lower slopes the steepest pistes are in the Olympia area close to
Åre village. The resort also offers many challenging opportunities for
off-piste skiing (with an official guide). Lessons in advanced
techniques, heli-skiing and telemark skiing are available at special
ski clinics and can be booked locally. Please note: the Åreskutan ski
area (the higher lifts) does not open until early February.
Snowboarding
A popular resort for riders. The Duved ski area is especially good for
beginner snowboarders. There are terrain parks with pipes, jumps and
boarder-cross in Tegefjall, Rodkullen and Årebjörnen ski areas, some of
which are floodlit in the evenings. To make the most of the area,
boarders should be happy taking drag lifts and T bars - there are lots
of them.
Åre Ski Camp
For good intermediate skiers who have reached a
plateau, the ski school’s two day Ski Camp is the course to help you
breakthrough to the next level. Three hours of intensive tuition on
each day ensures you perfect your carving, off-piste, short turns and
moguls.
Park and Pipe
For advanced skiers and
boarders who have some experience attempting jumps but want to sharpen
their park and pipe skills, this group course run by the ski school is
a great choice.
