Storlien

Seemingly on the edge of a complete wilderness, surrounded by spectacular scenery, is the beautiful little village resort of Storlien. Storlien is a classical winter wonderland destination, full of romance and mystique. The atmosphere here is unique, and it is a particular favourite of many of the Ski Scandinavia staff. The small village is made up almost entirely of timber framed buildings, housing a supermarket, post office, bakery and a couple of hotels and bars.

This very special product will appeal to many people. For the non-skiers in search of a winter wonderland, it is a must. For those who have little, or no skiing experience, it is the perfect destination, and for the experienced skier in search of something special, tired of the repetitiveness, Storlien is ideal. In order to meet with the expected demand, transfers will be arranged to both skiing areas, Meraker and Åre.
