Myrkdalen ski resort
Myrkdalen is a modern ski resort with family-friendly ski areas, slopes with all levels of difficulty, terrain parks and a great off-piste terrain. The resort has nine lifts: 2 six-seater express lifts, 3 t-bar lifts, 3 disc lifts and a magic carpet for the youngest skiers.
Myrkdalen offers a continuous network of slopes at all difficulty levels - family-friendly green slopes, long blue slopes for beginners and terrain that is more demanding for the advanced skiers. Most slopes are wide and open – Myrkdalen is therefore a perfect place to learn to ski.

The kids’ area has two disc lifts, a magic carpet and four varied green slopes. It`s located at the base of the ski resort, with easy access to parking and Myrkdalen Hotel.
For those learning to ski, there is a green area at the resort's base with a handful of short and wide route options. The Transporten green run is 400 metres of gentle slope through a gorgeous treeline next to the beginner area.
Myrkdalen has long stretches of broad routes that are ideal for practising turns. When you are ready to progress to blues, we recommend heading to the top of the resort to follow Hyrtamyra - an easy-going blue run with a steady descent to Storhaugekspressen. From here, you are also near the Fjellstova restaurant and the wide, sweeping Myrkdalsløypo blue route back to the bottom.
For a long, cruisy red run offering a range of challenges, the Overland section of the mountain is ideal for skiers and riders looking to pick up speed.
Combining steeper terrain with the option to venture off-piste, the routes accessible from the Kari Traa lift - both off and on piste – are one of the personal favourites for many of more experienced skiers. A short ski to the right of the Kari Traa lift and you have a vast playground of wide open off-piste, with superb views of the valley.
Vetlebotn mountain restaurant is located perfectly for a well-earned breather, snack, meal, local beverage or just to enjoy the beautiful views and admire the fresh tracks you’ve just made.
