The original home of skiing

Winter sports, log cabins and northern lights – Norway offers magical winter experiences.

Norway is where skiing was invented...

...so unsurprisingly, there’s a rich heritage of skiing – in all its forms – in the country. Its northern latitude means it’s blessed with snow in abundance. The season is long and the resorts are easy to reach. The skiing is ideally suited for beginners and intermediates being less steep than the Alps. In Norway, it’s not just about regular alpine skiing but also about the cross-country skiing and other winter experiences such as staying in a log cabin and seeing the Northern Lights.
