Skiing in Hemavan and Syterskalet
Hemavan is one of Sweden’s most established ski resorts, offering a unique combination of open mountain terrain, tree skiing and expansive views. The alpine offering includes multiple lifts, an extensive piste network and vertical drop suitable for both beginners and advanced skiers.
Adjacent to this, Syterskalet is taking shape – a new area where skiing, accommodation and a village centre are planned as one connected system. The vision is to create a modern mountain destination where skiing is a natural part of everyday life, year-round.
Alpine, cross-country and ski touring in one mountain area
Hemavan offers a complete skiing experience. Here you’ll find alpine runs both above and below the tree line, a snowpark, children’s areas and off-piste terrain in the open mountains. For those looking to explore further, ski touring and backcountry terrain are directly accessible from the lift system.
Cross-country skiing is equally central to the area. Several kilometres of prepared trails wind through sheltered forest terrain as well as open mountain tracks overlooking valleys and peaks. The trail system connects Hemavan with the surrounding mountain landscape, offering both shorter loops and longer tours in classic alpine environments.
The combination of alpine skiing, cross-country and mountain touring makes Hemavan one of the most complete ski destinations in northern Sweden, with reliable snow conditions and a long season.
