From £79 per person

Geilo ski & snowboard holidays transport you to Norway's second largest resort which lies between Oslo and Bergen. In a stunningly beautiful area on the Hardangervidda Plateau, it sits at an altitude of eight hundred metres. The highest lift reaches almost twelve hundred metres. Geilo has two ski centres with shuttle buses running between the two. Geilolia has the easier greens and blues and has the main ski school operating from its centre. The other area, Slaatta, has mainly blues and reds. Generally speaking, the resort does not attract the expert skier. Having said that, there are a handful of challenging runs and there is good off-piste terrain. Geilo is an ideal choice for those with families as provision of childcare is good.
