Traditional Wooden Cross Country Ski Family Adventure
Activity description:
Gather the family and go on an unforgettable skiing adventure in Åre. Try our old-fashioned wooden skis, treated with fragrant tar and whose bindings are simple and allow you to use your own shoes/boots (make sure they are sturdy and warm). We set out on easy but beautiful ski trails, without any steep hills, and at a moderate pace, so that there is always time to stop and snap a photo. We make a stop at our wilderness camp for some mandatory hot chocolate, oranges, and cinnamon buns. All reminiscent of an outing with our grandparents back in the day.
We recommend that younger children, who are not able to ski themselves, are pulled by an adult in a comfortable Segebaden pulk provided by us.
What will I experience?
A family-friendly excursion through the snowy forest on traditional wooden skis, with a stop for a snack at our cozy wilderness camp.
