Rondablikk Skills Week

8 days - from $1750

Beautiful Rondane National Park Expert tuition and analysis Indoor pool and sauna
Situated in south-eastern Norway, the high mountain plateau of the Rondane region is an excellent base for cross-country skiing, with almost 120km of prepared ski-tracks. We offer both beginner and intermediate weeks at Rondablikk and the variety of trails is perfectly suited to both levels. In the expert hands of our leader we have an added emphasis on technique, to establish a solid foundation or help move you forward from the basics. The week will combine practice on the nearby circuits, before progressing to longer day tours over frozen lakes and snow-covered meadows; this is complemented by evening presentations, including photo and video analysis on some days. On some days our group will enjoy lunch around a roaring fire, either in the open or at a cosy rest stop, whilst the free day gives you the chance to try your hand at ice fishing, dogsledding or snowshoeing.
