Usually in November/December a white layer of snow will cover Nordfjord. The winter normally lasts through February/March. From May to August you are able to enjoy snow activities at Stryn Summerski Centre.
The most skiing resorts have more than lifts and hills to offer. Most have several kilometres long cross country tracs, skiing courses, childrens lifts and cafées.
When you are planning a trip to Nordfjord, contact us or the skiing resort for updated information on the snow conditions.
