Our view on Geilo ski holidays
Ski holidays in Geilo are magical and for children, we think they will have a wonderful time on and off the slopes especially on toboggan run and in the Trollklubben Kids area. The slopes are perfect for beginners who don't want to rush it, but advanced skiers and snowboarders will definitely enjoy the more challenging slopes and the high jumps in Geilo Snowpark as well.
