Kvitfjell
Why not try something different from the central European alps and instead visit the Norwegain mountains? Kvitfjell is situated half an hour from Lillehammer and is deemed to be one of the most snow rich and modern ski resorts in Scandinavia.
Kvitfjell tends to always be the resort that opens up first in the season and also the one to close down last. This makes it a very popular place with the professional skiers who want to get down the slopes early in the season. This is where you find Norway’s longest black slope, which runs for 2,900 meters. Having said that, there are a broad range of green pistes that are a bit unusual in that they are wider than normal. The 29 km of runs in total offers something for everyone.
The off-piste area at Kvitfjell has been extended in recent years. Needless to say, there is a terrain park here as well, for anyone who wants to show off with a few tricks.

Three lovely slopes in the long Olympic hill. Not just a single steep.
