Norefjell, Oslo's nearest mountain range, boasts northern Europe's longest vertical drop, 1010 metres, in one of the longest runs, 6.5 kilometres! A winter adventure for all ages!
Norefjell is the right place – both for those who fancy the challenge of a black trail and for families with children or others who want to take it a little easier: 6.5 km and 1010 metres for speed and thrills, or the less challenging blue trails down in the valley. At the main facility, midway up the slope, are a ski school and amenities designed for children and beginners. There is also an area designed for children at the base of the slope with a magic carpet ski lift for the smallest and a 300 metre long slope for older kids. For snowboarders there is a terrain park with halfpipe, rails and big air. And for those who want to ski, there are over 160 km of groomed and marked trails, both at the base of the slope and right up the mountain at 1500 metres. |
