Overview: chalet description: Forest Cabins description

The name Forest Cabins says it all – these cabins are as traditional as it gets, made of wood and tucked among the trees in the quieter Geilolia part of the resort. It's an easy-peasy walk to the lifts, ski school and kindergarten for the little ones, and you can hop on the free bus to get to the main village and the rest of the slopes on the Geilo side.

Choose from a range of cabins for up to seven, 10 or even 12 people – so that's the whole family or group of pals sorted. And each one has everything you need for a comfy stay, from the well-stocked kitchen to the living area with fireplace. Then there are some extra Nordic touches, like some apartments featuring a private sauna where you can unwind the local way and a drying cupboard to store your ski clothing in overnight.

Each evening, gather to cook up some dinner and then play games or just chat about your day. And if you fancy mixing things up, you can head to the nearby Vestlia Resort and pay a little extra to use the pools and spa, or stroll into the village to check out the bars and restaurants.

This small mountain town in eastern Norway is easily one of the nation’s top ski resorts, home to some of its longest established ski areas which we’ve been enjoying for over a century and a half. In the district of Hol, Geilo’s one of Norway’s five national park villages, with the Hardangervidda and Hallingskarvet mountains on either side. A collection of hotels, apartments and shops are bundled together between the fells. Home to 2500 residents, the town feels modern and friendly – it’s easy to navi...
Separate kids ski areas provide an environment for tots to learn safely away from the crowds, and with different areas linked by a ski bus there’s plenty to explore. On one side, the Geiloheisen area near the centre of town has a mix of runs, with the kid’s area accessed from the Havsdelen lift besides a red, green and blue piste. Vestila on the other side is home to slopes of every colour, including some lovely blues that stream down between the trees. Advanced skiers and snowboarders might miss the amou...
When it comes to mealtimes, we like Taubanekroa for burgers and comfort food, but for a good view, get lunch at Top Skicafe which looks out over the Hallingskarvet National Park. For something special, book a table at Restaurant Hallingstuene, where one of Norway’s favourite TV chefs, Frode Aga, whips up modern twists on Traditional Norwegian cuisine. On a Saturday, Havsdalskroa pleases the crowds with good drinks and grub, promising only to close when the last guest has gone home... Stugu over in Vestila is a ...
