Norway's largest ski area!

To Trysil it is!
This winter wonderland is located in the heart of Scandinavia. Trysilfjellet towers in the landscape with forested hillsides and snow-capped peaks - as if the landscape were custom-made for maximum skiing enjoyment. Trysil's location ensures a stable and solid winter climate, and with a high degree of snow reliability, Trysil can offer skiing adventures and pleasures from November through to the end of April.

Comfortable and enjoyable accommodation is a precondition for a successful ski holiday. At Trysil, we offer a wide range of holiday cabins and lodges, in a variety of sizes, many of which are within skiing distance of the slopes. Some cabin communities are close to both the alpine facility and cross-country trails, while others are located right among criss-crossing cross-country trails. For us, it is important that you are satisfied with the size and comfort of your cabin/apartment, and that you live in an area that is perfectly suited for you, your family, and any guests.

It's a breeze travelling on a skiing holiday to Trysil. Regardless of whether you are travelling by boat, bus, aeroplane, or car, Trysil is easily within reach.

Boat to - and automobile from - Oslo
From Oslo you have only a 2.5-3 hour drive on excellent roads to get to Trysil. Take the E6 highway to Rv. 3 north and then the Rv. 25 east up into the mountains. Prepare yourself for a ski holiday unlike any other. If you are travelling by boat and you do not have your own car, then the Trysilekspressen shuttle bus will pick you up at the ferry terminal by appointment.

Aeroplane to Gardermoen International Airport
If you are flying to Gardermoen International Airport, then you need to just board the Trysil-ekspressen shuttle bus at the terminal and you are in Trysil in 2 hours and 50 minutes. Buses leave 8 times daily, bringing you right to the centre of Trysil. From there you can take a taxi to your accommodation site. It is also possible to rent a car at Gardermoen and in Trysil.

SKI & SNOWBOARD TRAILS & ROUTES
General    Trysilfjellet is the one-and-only Winter Wonderland. Our mountain seems like it was specifically designed for holidaymakers who want to get the most out of a skiing holiday, and the wide-reaching network of downhill slopes and cross-country trails provides challenges for skiers of all ages and abilities. Trysilfjellet's round form means that we can offer skiing on all three sides of the mountain - and all the slopes are connected into one contiguous skiing facility.

A wide-range of slopes means that everyone can find the perfect slope suited to their level of skiing proficiency, whether they are beginners skiing in the children's area or advanced skiers carving down the black-marked slopes. Those of you who wish to have a bit extra fun and are up on the latest "jib" trend can check out what is happening at the Park and challenge yourself or your friends. Trysilfjellet rooms the full spectre of skiing experiences.
Cross-country Skiing  In and around Trysilfjellet there are 100 km cross country tracks. Short or long, classical or freestyle, day or night - bring a lunch-pack and a thermos like many Norwegians do, or just stop by the Skihytta or Høyfjellssenteret and fill up at a cafe. Right next to Turistsenteret (the Tourist Centre) there is a three-kilometre-long lighted track for those who would like to go skiing after dark.

The best starting point for cross-country trips to Trysilfjellet are Skihytta and Fageråsen. From both sites, you can look forward to spectacular ski trips.

Night skiing

Torchlight skiing is held every Tuesday evening after night skiing at Turistsenteret. It is a fantastic sight to see the long “snake” of skiers holding torches wind their way down the slope in the dark. A wonderful sight and experience both for those participating and for those watching. Everyone can partcipate. No cost.
