Säfsen

Säfsen, just outside Ludvika, started building the first lift in 1979 and nowadays the resort has activities both in the summer and winter. Säfsen itself has 1300 beds for overnight stays. There are 16 slopes and 6 lifts, a park designed by David Ny and a snowy landscape, "Filurland" for the little ones to play in. A children's area with conveyor belts, sledding hill and pram parking.

The vertical drop is 185 meters, but the longest slope is 2160 meters long.

This ski resort in southern Dalarna has a modern snow system with winches, piste machines and cannons that was renewed between 2007 and 2010.

Their slogan is "the nearest wilderness" and close it is. Just three hours from Stockholm and 130 km from Örebro, it's never far away. If you don't want to go skiing, you can either go cross-country skiing, mountain biking or do some activity in one of the countless lakes nearby.

Säfsen is family-friendly - here children of all ages can experience a fun winter holiday.
