What a fantastic place! We stayed at this hotel with a package from Headwater. It was our first time trying cross country skiing and our package included equipment hire, guiding, all food, one yoga class, use of the sauna and shared living areas with unlimited tea/ coffee. We found the hotel extremely friendly and comfortable. All of the staff were helpful and approachable. The food was varied and excellent. I am a vegetarian and my meals were all extremely tasty and well presented - thank you chefs! Our equipment was all very good with help from the ski store to sort any problems we had. Our guiding and instruction was fantastic - thanks so much to Jane for her excellent coaching, and great guiding and inspiration from Tron and Venka. We were taken on some great routes - the best being our trip up one of the nearby mountains with fabulous views over the surrounding area. We also had plenty of opportunity to explore the trails by ourselves - the area is well signposted and the steeper tracks are well marked on the maps with chevrons. There really is nothing I could fault with our trip and I wouldn’t hesitate to return again in the future. Thanks Venabu Fjellhotel!
