CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING: KAMBEN

Itinerary

• Flight Inclusive itinerary
• Land Only itinerary

Day 1

Fly from Heathrow to Oslo with SAS; transfer by road to Kamben (approx. 3 1/2 hours).

Day 2 - 7

We prefer not to specify in advance where we will ski each day. This is to enhance the flexibility and adapt to weather and snow conditions and to some extent the ability of each group. When choosing routes, the leader's priority will be to take in a variety of scenery and to ensure that participants become better and more confident skiers as the week progresses. Examples of skiing options: The well-marked trails around Kamben offer possibilities for skiers of all levels and the nearby nursery slope provides practice for downhill skills. Northerly routes take us to Oset, with its traditional stave church, where we follow the loipe through birch forests before joining the banks of the river Tislei. A gradual climb to the northwest brings you on to Golsfjellet, a rolling plateau with six tops over 1000m, each one with a magnificent view over the mountains of the Jotunheimen and Hardangervidda. On at least one of these outings we will call at the hotels own cabin in the mountains. As this is a multi-grade holiday, most weeks there are two grades of skiing offered by two leaders

Day 8

Return transfer to Oslo. Fly Oslo to Heathrow. Flight times subject to confirmation.
