Are you one of those who feel your heart beat a little faster for winter mountains? Then we recommend a visit to Gaustablikk – whether you enjoy alpine skiing or cross-country. Here you’ll find a family-friendly ski resort, with the option to rent all the equipment you need.
Gaustablikk – Perfect for alpine and cross-country skiing
Gaustatoppen, also known as Gausta, is the highest mountain in Vestfold and Telemark. This area offers fantastic conditions for both alpine and cross-country skiing. If you need equipment, you can easily rent it at Gausta Ski Rental.
Prepare your trip by checking the trail maps, packing your backpack with essentials for a break in the grill hut, or planning a meal at one of the local restaurants. Gausta also has a bakery known for both quality and flavor.
Family-friendly ski adventure
Gausta Ski Center is child-friendly, offering free lift passes for children under 8. You’ll find slopes suitable for all ages and skill levels, and the ski center’s mascots often organize fun activities for the little ones.
For older kids, there are challenging trails, or perhaps a sledding competition sounds exciting? Regardless of skill level, you’ll find something suitable at Gausta Ski Center. And remember, Gaustablikk is just a short day trip away from cities like Porsgrunn.
Porsgrunn – A winter gem
Porsgrunn is a beautiful city in winter. When the snow blankets the ground, the pace slows, and sounds are muted by the quiet of winter. At Rådhusplassen’s playground, you can try ice skating during the colder season.
In both Porsgrunn and Skien, there are several great ski trails, and when snow conditions are good, you can enjoy a lovely tour on groomed tracks. There’s plenty to experience here, whether it’s winter or summer.
