Tucked away in the heart of Norway, Trysil Ski Resort is the country’s largest - and arguably Europe’s most undiscovered skiing gem. Far from the bustle of crowded alpine resorts, Trysil offers immaculate snow conditions, a long, reliable ski season, and perfectly groomed pistes that stretch for miles.
With barely a lift queue in sight and world-class ski instructors ready to sharpen your turns, it's no wonder many consider Trysil a true skiing paradise. It's the kind of place where you can carve all day and still have the mountain (almost) to yourself. Shhh… just don’t tell everyone.
Like many Scandinavian ski resorts, Trysil boasts one of the longest and most snow-sure seasons in Europe – kicking off in December and often stretching all the way into May (yes, really!). That means more time to ski, more time to perfect your turns, and fewer worries about patchy pistes.
The resort is made up of four seamlessly connected ski areas, offering a generous 81km of downhill terrain across 69 beautifully groomed slopes.
Whether you're a total beginner or a seasoned snowhound, Trysil has you covered. You’ll find wide, confidence-building pistes ideal for learners, plus challenging black runs and thrilling snow parks that keep advanced skiers grinning from ear to ear. It’s the kind of place where you can start your day smooth and easy, and finish it airborne - if you're brave enough!
