Heli skiing in Sweden

Using the Helicopter as your private lift and a certified mountain guide to fins the best snow we offer a premium ski experience. The mountains in the close area provide 700-1000 m vertical and if you fly in to the more remote areas of Mårma and Kebnekaise you get up to 1500m vertical.

Heli ski area

Our heli ski area is about 300km from east to west and some 200km north to south. That makes about 60 000 square km. This area has more then hundred peaks, all covered in snow waiting for you to ski them. This is the largest wilderness area in Europe and a unique experience.
