Vemdalen

Exclusive to Neilson, the small, friendly resort of Vemdalen is probably one of the best family and beginner-suited resorts around. Its suitability is thanks to a network of gentle, uncrowded slopes that all lead back to the ski base, a superb English-speaking ski school and a dedicated ski and play area for children.

The accommodation, at the base of the ski area, is located within metres of the slopes so no need for a ski bus in this resort!  Resort facilities, also situated around the ski base, include three restaurants, a piano bar, ski hire shop, ski school, coffee shop and a good-sized supermarket.

The resort has ploughed much investment into the ski area recently. Winter 2005/6 saw the opening of a new ski area, ‘Skalsfjallet’, serviced by a new 6 seater chairlift. This new area means four more pistes varying in difficulty and a new terrain park for those who like jumps and rails.As well as Vemdalen, the lift pass covers the areas of Bjornrike and Klovsjo/Storhogna.

For non-skiers and après-ski, there’s a great choice of things to do including husky dog sledding, snowmobiling, Icelandic pony trekking and ice climbing.

For a family ski holiday or confidence building first trip to the slopes, Vemdalen is the perfect destination. It’s the well-planned resort, services, activities and welcoming ‘can-do’ attitude that makes the holiday experience effortless, safe and good fun.

Please note, there is an ATM cash machine in resort but no bank therefore it is not possible to change travellers cheques. Credit cards are widely accepted.
