Hemavan is northern Sweden's largest ski resort and is a powerful ski resort in a fantastic mountain environment that offers skiing for both families with children and seasoned off-piste skiers.

Hemavan's ski area has a total of 9 lifts, 31 slopes, 3 children's areas, two Snowparks and a Skicross-Arena. In Hemavan there is also a wide range of restaurants, including the architecturally impressive restaurant Björk - Top Restaurant & Fjällbar.

In Hemavan there are great opportunities for off-piste skiing. The most well-known area is probably Kobåset, which is also the competition arena for the freeride competition Ride the Cow, which takes place every spring.

Hemavan and Tärnaby were previously the same ski resort, but since 2022 the facilities are formally separated. However, the same lift pass is still valid at both facilities.
