Our Playground
Mother nature treats us well in Kittelfjäll. During our season the weather predominantly comes from the west and east which brings new, dry snow on a regular basis. Sometimes it can be pretty windy, during those conditions we find compact snow on the upper layers and powder on the lower elevations – treeskiing galore. February and early March is Champaign pow time!
Even at the end of the season in April we usually still find dry powder snow on the north-facing slopes and the south-facing slopes often have firn by midday, all thanks to our northern location and altitude.
Kittelfjall
A true mountain village nestled in the mountainous landscape of Lapland. With less than 140 inhabitants, Kittelfjall has retained the relaxed atmosphere so typical for Sweden.
People are living in harmony with nature and are enjoying the numerous opportunities for exciting outdoor activities the mountains have to offer. To top-it off, during clear winter nights the magical auroras put on a breathtaking show.
Kittelfjall has its own ski area, there are only a few anker-lifts but the slopes are top notch and there are almost endless possibilities for off-piste skiing and there even is a fun park.
The village has a small supermarket, three excellent restaurants and a hotel, where almost every Friday and Saturday a pretty wild Apres-Ski Party with live bands is happening.
Time to Travel
February
50% alpine I 50% trees
Usually a bit colder and the days shorter than later in the season, but mother nature blesses us with heaps of fresh snow. Most importantly, when it snows its mostly perfect Champaign powder – excellent open bowl turns and epic tree-skiing at the lower elevations are waiting.
March
75% alpine I 25% trees
Historically the most popular time for Heliskiing in Kittelfjäll and should be booked well in advance. The days are getting longer, the weather stabilizes and still regular snowfalls bring us the best snow conditions at all altitudes. Long runs from easy to steep, open slopes and steep gullies are on the menu.
April
90% alpine I 10% trees
Offering conditions that have often been underestimated. The weather is stable and the snow cover is still excellent. At night, the higher elevations are often powdered with fresh snow and even fresh pow is not uncommon in the lower forests. Long runs, lots of sunshine and long days await – more time for epic descents.
