Activities for the whole family
Quality time together, both on and off the slopes, is something we want to give all families who visit our centre. That's why we offer a wide range of activities to suit both young and old. During your stay you can enjoy the following:
Snowmobile safari - Discovering the amazing world of the Sälen mountains on the ski slopes may be a fairytale, but if you want to explore it up close, try our popular snowmobile safari. Together with our knowledgeable guides and other excited visitors, we travel through deep forests and over high mountains. During the tour, we'll also stop to take in the enchanting views and scenery. If you want to explore the Stöten area on your own, you can also rent your own snowmobile. Perfect if you want to spend a full or half day on the snowmobile and stop for lunch or coffee. Our knowledgeable staff will be happy to recommend beautiful places to visit! Read more here!
Fill your holiday with both action-packed and relaxing family activities

Dog sledding in Sälen is truly a mountain adventure! Enjoy the refreshing breeze as you gaze out over the magical scenery. Experience the tranquillity of nature in Stöten - during the dog sledding tour, all you'll hear is the muffled sound of the sleds against the snow and the panting of the dogs.
