Lovely ski area, quite small but more than enough to do for a shorter break (not 7 days). Amazing snow parks and snow was unreal!

Would highly reccomend for a long weekend late in the season. Nice intermediate level runs, good lifts and hardly any queus. Also good for beginners. Snow quality was very good for the end of March. Definitely more of a family friendly resort, there are not many opportunities for apres.

We stayed in the town a there were plenty of shops/restaurants. The bus up to the ski centre was really easy. The resort is small but really accessible with the mains lift that never really got that busy. Such a friendly atmosphere with a few apres spots to choose from in such a small resort. Drinks were very exp since but the food was reasonable and very good everywhere you go. Would recommend staying in the SkiStar lodge, can be tricky getting back to the town if you stay at the apres late.

Great ski resort for a beginner with the family. Stayed out the Skarsnuten hotel which was really special, especially the ability to ski straight out of our accomodation on to a slope. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a family trip, with excellent ski schools provided for children and adults.

Nice village, slopes and lift and very convenient parking at the resort. They also offer other fun family friendly activities such as tobogganing
