Our wintersled adventure starts in Åre Björnen where we sit down on warm reindeer furs in our comfortable big sled thats linked behind an ATV (all-terrain vehicle). After leaving Åre Björnen the trip goes through a wonderful landscape with fantasic veiws on the backside of mount Åreskutan and soon we reach our goal, a really nice and cozy hut high up on the mountain side. Here we will be all alone in the wilderness and the only “sound” to listen to is the silence. In the hut we will have time to relax, light a fire and have a break for coffee and snacks and if there is kids on the trip they will have the chance to go sledding in the slopes around the hut. If you like, we can also arrange lunch in the hut.
The ATV Wintersled adventure is an easy accessible adventure for guests in Åre who like to come out in the wilderness and get a feeling of being alone on the mountain. This is a good and safe alternative to snowmobiling and snowscooter where you easily can bring the family and friends for an unforgettable adventure in the wilderness.

A full day guided experience on the mountain where we discover Mt. Åreskutan on a snowbike. We show you around the pistes and lifts, from Årebjörnen to Ullådalen. To ride a snowbike is very fun and easy to learn, also gentle for knees, joints and tired legs- great if you want a break from skiing. After just a warm up run we are ready for our journey around the lift system. We start in Årebjörnen and ride all the way to Ullådalen, in red but mostly blue slopes, and we ride in an enjoyable pace. Once in Ullådalen we stop for lunch and a warming (or cooling) drink in a restaurant. Then, after a nice break, we start the journey back to Årebjörnen again- a great tour for the whole family and a guaranteed memorable day.
Snowbike Safari is an activity for guests who like to explore Mt Åreskutan in a new way. We recommend that you have tried a little bit of downhill skiing before to get the most out of the day, but there is no requirement.

If you can ride a bike you can go Snowbiking. Whether you like biking or skiing most, you will have a great time on the slope with us on our Snowbikes here in Åre. During our Snowbike school we prepare you to rent your own Snowbike, and after the school you can go in the ski system and ski lift with your Snowbike. A skipass for Åre ski area is needed.
Snowbike are the perfect tool for lots of people who like to explore the slopes of Åre in an new way.
The “left out” family member– Perhaps you are the one who are waiting in the lodge or in the apartment while the rest of the famliy shreds the mountain. Now you can join and in and share the fun with them, not waiting for them at home.
The vacationing skier– You have already bought your “one week skipass” here in Åre and like to spend everyday of your trip on the mountain. After a few days of hard skiing your legs are tired. Well… Ski sitting down for a day is a great break to rest your legs and have fun at the same time. Don´t risk injury pushing yourself on tired legs, so rent a Snowbike instead for one day and have fun!
People with bad leg joints– If your knees don´t work as they used to you can still go on the slopes with a snowbike and spend the day with your friends and family. Riding a Snowbike put much less strain on knee, ankle and hip joints then skiing or snowboarding.
First timers– If you never have done skiing or snowboarding before the Snowbike is a perfect “first step” to enter the slope and after about 60 min you have picked up how to ride the snowbike. If you like you can add these skills to the skiis or snowboard later – or just keep riding the snowbike for the rest of your holiday!
Skiers or snowboarders who want to try something new– We promise you will have fun and experienced “snow sliders” will learn how to snowbike in just a few minutes!
Like to “show off” – If you mabye not are a good skier but like to impress your friends with doing something new and cool for the first day on the slope, snowbike is the tool for you. You will be the “King of the slope”!
The snowbikers– Yes, there is hundreds of people who not are skiing or snowboarding while they are in Åre. Some of them have found there sport and they are Snowbikers!
