Pronóstico de Nieve para Hemsedal

Hemsedal is a beautiful, quiet resort and certainly has enough terrain to entertain three intrepid snowboarders for a week. If you drive from Oslo, it can take longer than the suggested 3.5 hours. It took us 5 hours, but that was through heavy snow with frozen roads. Snow tyres are a must! Accomodation in the resort is good value. Food and booze are typically Norwegian (£7 for a beer) so stock up at the duty free before you leave. There are only about 3 places to eat out and these are nothing special. Otherwise, great panoramic views, lots of off-piste terrain and interesting through-the-tree runs. The tops can be somewhat exposed, so beware of dumps of snow suddenly disappearing in strong winds! Defintely a change from the Alps.
