Welcome to Gautefall Alpine Center only 2 hours from Torp (Ryanair)
Gautefall is a very popular destination, located in south-west Telemark. In winter, Telemark's biggest alpine skiing centre offers excellent conditions for all snow lovers, whether you prefer Telemark skiing, snowboarding, alpine or cross-country skiing. In order to guarantee excellent conditions and a long season, Gautefall has invested NOK 11-12 million in a large and efficient snow canon. Separate canons have been installed to create an exciting snowboard arena. The youngest children will have a wonderful time racing round the specially designed play area on mini-skidoos, while older children, as well as their parents and grandparents, can enjoy thrilling sledge rides down the 1,200 metre sledging hill, one of the longest in Norway. In summer, the mountains attract hikers and fishing enthusiasts. Cool off with a refreshing dip in one of the mountain tarns. In late summer, you will find berries and mushrooms in abundance in the woods and meadows. Telemark's largest alpine skiing facility is situated in the Gautefallheia hills between Drangedal and Nissedal/Treungen, and is easily accessible from anywhere in southern Norway. It is the closest genuine winter destination to Oslo TORP Sandefjord. Ryanair fly from Stanstead to Oslo Torp. “ALL IN ONE” is the term that best describes Gautefall. Where else in Telemark – or in eastern or southern Norway for that matter – will you find absolutely EVERYTHING you need within walking distance? Just park your car and then forget about it for the duration of your stay.
On the piste...
Gautefall Alpinsenter has 8 slopes, 1 chair lift and 5 T-bar lifts with a total capacity of 6,000 people per hour, 2 sledging hills, a fantastic snow canon, night openings with flood lit slopes every Tuesday and Friday, separate ski play area, children's slope with free lifts for children under 7, ski school with courses in all forms skiing, including snowboarding, new snowboard arena with quarterpipe, big jumps, rails and Norway's most challenging halfpipe. Hands-Free Snowpass makes it easy to pass through check points. Can be used at most facilities in Norway and Europe. The cross-country tracks are prepared for both classical and free-style skiing.
There are up to 100 km of prepared tracks, divided into routes of 2, 3, 5, 7, 15 and 32 km, all in varied and wonderful winter terrain. The easy tracks are at Langmyr to the west of the hotel. For the more skilled cross-country skiers we recommend the 15-km route north of the main road, which takes you past “Himmelrike”, via the lakes of Fisketjønn and Rosstjønn to Langmyr and back to the hotel/alpine centre.
If you follow this route anti-clockwise you will climb the steepest hills at the beginning and you'll be rewarded with some great downhill slopes at the end of your trip. At the top of the alpine slopes you will find a pleasant 7-km long cross-country track, a roundtrip through an amazing winter landscape. Take the chair lift to the top and enjoy the downhill slopes on the way back.
Thrilling sledge rides . If you've been down the slopes on skis and snowboard and you're looking for another adrenaline kick then hire a sledge and head for our 1,200 metre long sledging hill.
