New Year skiing in Sälen

Although there's a lot of pressure on chalet bookings over New Year, there's always plenty of room on the slopes of Stöten. You can choose from 50 different runs of varying difficulty to suit beginners and experienced skiers of all ages. In addition, the weather conditions are usually magical over the New Year - the first snow of the season has settled like a stable, white blanket over the mountain and the temperatures are often mild. The sun usually comes out during the day and makes the whole mountain sparkle.

The brasserie's impressive New Year's Eve supper

On New Year's Eve, the Brasseriet restaurant in Stöten will be serving up a sumptuous New Year's Eve supper that you won't want to miss! The evening begins with a delicious pre-dinner drink, followed by an impressive three-course supper. The last few hours of the year will end with a big party with a nightclub feel and an atmospheric live band.

Celebrate New Year in Sälen with children

Celebrating New Year's Eve in the mountains with children is something that sometimes scares some parents - quite unnecessarily. Stöten is specially adapted for families with children. For example, children have their very own club, the Wolf Club, where they can hang out with Stöten's lovely mascot Vargy and get to know other children at the same time. Vargy and his colleagues make sure that all children have fun and feel safe in the club. He also organises fun ski competitions, children's après-ski, treasure hunts and lots of other activities for children of all ages.

The endless possibilities of Sälen

At our spa in Vattufjäll, both children and adults are welcome - relax with the whole family and treat your tired skiing legs to a wonderful treatment. If you're a family that likes more action on your holiday, you can challenge each other to a bowling match or take a fast-paced snowmobile trip. Or why not discover the mountains from a dog sled? In Stöten the possibilities are endless!
