Järvsö reviews (Page 3)

Perfect for the family and / or the beginner / average traveler .... only 3.5 hours from Stockholm.
Sure, you could wish for a little longer slopes, but the slopes that are available are sufficient if you want to get cruising skiing without having to spend a full day in the car to get all the way up to the little bigger ski resorts further up in the country.
With the new sex chair lifts to be built in 2018, you will get rid of the queues that are available during the sports week.
So if you want good skiing, without long lifts and near Stockholm ... yes then, I can not imagine anything better and more cozy than Järvsö.

As old powdered alpev, you are expected to suck and regret a little bit about the smaller Swedish ski systems, but I will not do that in this review. The Alps are one thing and the Swedish slopes something else.

When a skier gets children, the skiing changes a lot. Long car journeys, climbers and steep cushions are replaced by the more nearby mountains, barns and button lifts. Not necessarily worse, but different. It's great to move on to the joy of a new generation.

It is here that Järvsö comes in. Above all, good family skiing is offered. The system is not that big, yet offers 20 slopes and 8 lifts. The barnbacks are flexible with roller conveyors and button lifts that give the kids a chance to get to know the edges of the skis and to taste the snow. For those who want a little more challenge, "Skolbacken" and "Himlabacken" offer a little more slope and longer ride. The slopes around the "north and west lifts" and between the seats on "Järvsø South" are black and red and fun the short minutes they are going to descend. Because the system is so small, it's easy to go away on your own and take a quick ride while the kids go with the other parent.

There are a couple of restaurants in the system. On Järvsø South, in the middle of the hill, is "Restaurang Eftertanke" which upon our visit offered a very good lentil soup and a cheese cake with deer rosé that can certainly be recommended. Well worth a visit! On the north side there is also a hot tub with light grills (indoors and outdoors) and a microwave for lunch during most of the days. Smooth and nice to the wallet! The service in Järvsö is good and the staff are wonderfully helpful. Maintenance of both facilities and slopes is handled exemplary. The slopes are exemplary and they produce impressive amounts of snow, which also gives a fairly good snow depth.

In the middle of the day, Järvsö is visited, but otherwise it has been quiet during our visits. During the weekends, pressure is increasing when people from neighboring towns are on the go, but we have never experienced it as crowded. The locals speak with the prayers in week nine when it's thick with people and many queues. For us who like to avoid long lifts and narrow pistes, Järvsö is a good alternative to Sälen and smaller resorts like Kungsberget and Romme Alpin. In price, the ski passes are a bit under comparable resorts, children under 8 years are free.

To Järvsö you are mainly for children's sake, you get a good range of backs at a good price, do not queue and meet with happy and friendly staff. This with the beautiful heather forests like scenery.

Järvsö is a perfect ski resort for a weekend for lesser-deserved skiers

Positively:
Very well prepared in all runs despite 10 plus degrees the slopes were fine
Sydbacken is a very nice hill
The food is really good better than Åre's food
Good children's areas
Near Stockholm
Good price
Nice hotel

negative:
Urusel lift system there were giant queues like in the 80's. The chair lifts are catastrophically slow and destroy the entire Iron Sea
Lifting capacity must be increased by 30% over the next few years.
The two-way lifts are to be replaced with a switch-on chair
The anchor lifts on the north side may need to be replaced with a chair lift or more anchor lifters
Fall height is very low
For short slopes
For mesiga slopes, however, good for beginners
Need a top cabin with some foreign food

If it were not for the catastrophic lift system, Järvsø had got a tree

A little too short & narrow slopes but well groomed. The mountain hotel on the south side is very well placed.

(Home is always home ...)
Do not honestly think it's shitty when farila lives (empatraz) hesar on our hopes, it's just like going to Kajevall if it does not fit .....

The jumps and railways will be restored this year and are personally fat thankful for it!
The offpiste can be gold if one finds the correct rep and it is very snowy, and the slopes are in top trim every day basically!
The new lift system is an incredible investment and also offers some new runs.

Away is good but home is best.

järvsö hill has very many jibbers but yet the park is no better ... if the park had been in the north ridge they would have been much better. longer back and so the boxes would look better where there is more plant one in the schoolback so they do not get mass start bumps and everything ...

The jars in Järvsö were like this, I thought when I was there but the jump was pretty good, but only one rail had them. Now it certainly has become a bit better. I prefer Kungsberget.

easily the best place not too far away from sthlm.
I'm stammis there (have traveled a lot every year since I learned to go when I was 5) and it just gets better and better. The only thing you can complain about are the short slopes .... but you will not let the huge queues that exist in the oars, the seals, etc..
The staff is top, and the ski rental is crazy, always the best of the year on everything.
The park is good and constantly evolves.

Järvsö is by far the best place from stockholm if you just want to stand up over a weekend. have visited most of the bays with a 3-4 hour journey from Stockholm and there wins järvsö big every three weekends to bring the season and this year there will be some more.

Good things: Itinerary, good with snow a good deal in spring, nice people, very children families. a good park, good and cheap accommodation.
Slightly worse things: short slopes, poor nightlife.

I seem to stop complaining about the dash they opened it this year and they would build it in another hill and then the park would have been so awesome but since the season was late they could not build the park until after Christmas they will build prick in the slope next to the northern back next winter
