Jämtland Härjedalen
Small and large adventures
Many people say that Jämtland Härjedalen is one large playground. They may well be right. There are many small and large adventures here for all ages to enjoy.
Jämtland and Härjedalen invite you to wonderful days of skiing in the mountains and fishing on the ice in lakes teaming with char. Dog teams racing past spruce trees laden with snow, a toboggan race on the slope round the corner of the cabin, a long-distance ski trip on well-prepared cross-country tracks, after ski and party, or a cup of hot chocolate in front of the open fire. Something for everyone, it seems!
Jämtland Härjedalen – the downhill paradise
One of the most famous skiing places in Scandinavia is Åre. Many slopes, large drops and a cosy village feeling make Swedes and foreigners alike choose Åre for their winter holidays. But there are plenty of other ski havens in Jämtland Härjedalen.
Funäsdalsfjällen is a region with only natural snow. Ramundberget and Tänndalen have slopes for children and adults. The season is long and the lift cards are unlimited.
For a smaller area with equally great skiing, try Lofsdalsfjällen or Bydalsfjällen. These are popular haunts for families with children, and also for locals.
The winter is the high season of the year, and there is a lot going on. There are major events to enjoy, as well as smaller ones, targeted at more specific audiences, waiting to welcome you.
Sites of interest
A winter holiday in Jämtland Härjedalen is usually full of all kinds of activities. However, there are also many sites to see in the winter, such as Åreskutan mountain in the west, Härjedalen Mountain Museum in the South and Korallgrottan cave in the north.

| Cross-country Skiing | It is a few degrees below freezing, the snow is glistening and is perfect for skiing. What a feeeling! Bring your skis, a pot or two of ski wax, and enjoy your surroundings.
Almost anywhere you go in Jämtland Härjedalen, you will find prepared cross-country ski tracks. Short and easy, or long and challenging for those with stamina. The mountains of Funäsdalen have 300 km of unbroken, prepared cross-country ski-tracks. A real world record!
| | Fishing | Char, trout, grayling, lavaret, perch and pike. Lakes on barren mountainsides, tarns glittering like stars in the dark forests, the still waters of rivers and streams. There is family-friendly, accessible fishing waters for everyone, as well as dream fishing hidden away in the remote wilderness.
Trout and char are very busy once spawning is done. Even the grayling is usually active under the new ice. Fishing is good early in the season when the transparency of the ice provides many exciting opportunities for the thrills of peep-fishing.
The early spring is the perfect time for lying stretched out on the ice watching the swift shoals of char moving around, or for a spot of sunbathing on the reindeer skin while enjoying a bite to eat.
| | Skiing | Imagine a virgin piste covered in fine powdery snow, glittering in the morning sunlight. A fresh and newly prepared piste against a background of ice-clad mountain peaks. A mighty half-pipe in snowboardland. Or an easy beginners’ slope for children with lots of laughter, snow-drenched kids and happy adventures.
Jämtland Härjedalen has the best skiing and ski resorts in the Nordic region for all types of skiing. |
