Pedersöre Ski Center is really delivering this winter ⛷️
Despite the lack of natural snow, the ski trail in Lappfors has offered skiers – both elite and recreational – excellent conditions this season. IK Falkens volunteers have produced artificial snow whenever temperatures allowed, which has made skiable tracks possible despite mild weather and bare ground elsewhere. Skiers from the region have truly gathered in Lappfors to ski! At the time of writing, the track measures 3.2 km – and more artificial snow is available for extension!
The changing room in the Lappfors ski lodge is open weekdays 9:00–21:00 and 9:00–17:00 on weekends when the ski trail is open. Showers and toilets available.
Trail fee 10€ per day or 40€ per season.
Address: Terjärvvägen 110, 68840 Lappfors.
It’s also possible to book the ski lodge for various events!
