Funäsfjällen

The cradle of Swedish mountain tourism.

We got snowed up already way back in 1882.

The place was Fjällnäs. The year was 1882. The event was huge. And behind every event is a person. Our person was called Jonas Åslund. What Jonas didn't know was that his newly opened little guesthouse would be the starting shot for a million dollar industry.

A lot has happened since 1882. Lifts, hotels, cottages and youth hostels have been built. Pistes and downhill runs have been groomed. New generations have learnt to ski and regular guests have returned. Year after year.

Today we are Scandinavia's largest ski area. But we are no winter factory, preferring instead to continue to believe in the genuine, the real and the down-to-earth. And just like Jonas Åslund we want you to experience the wonderful views and the clean air here in the mountains. Come here - your big mountain adventure is waiting.

Scandinavia's largest mountain experience

The mountains in summer can be experienced in a number of ways. If you want to go hiking, try one of our 30 Gemtours, which are the very best hiking trails in the region. There are Gemtours for old and young, for beginners and true mountaineering enthusiasts. For the youngest ones, there are ten FunTours which are playful and educational hiking trails.

If you prefer to explore the mountains on the saddle, there are both riding tours and 423 kilometres of cycling trails to choose from. Those who like fishing won't find a better location. More than 200 lakes and 300 kilometres of flowing waters make Funäsfjällen one of the largest areas in Sweden for licensed fishing.

Taste the mountain

When your stomach is rumbling, you can choose from many restaurants, cafés, eateries and waffle cabins. Take the chance to sample the mountain's and wilderness' very own flavours – fish, venison and locally produces specialities. Just as for the summer experience, the real and genuine takes centre stage.

Store your impression

You're wearing comfortable hiking boots, light clothes and are in good spirits. The sun warms your face, the birds are chirping, a mountain stream playfully ripples by and the flowers of summer literally explode in a burst of colours. You're up on the summit. Close your eyes. Take a deep breath, memorise and store your impressions.
