A brief overview

Arebjornen is a peaceful centre set amid snowy forests, a 10-15min bus ride from Are village. Its ski area is lift-connected to the main Are ski area (approx 45mins skiing time) and a free ski bus which runs regularly between 9am and 8pm connects to Are village. It is a winter wonderland for families with every aspect of the village and ski area designed with parents and children in mind. The network of wide, gentle slopes are never more than a stone's throw away from the attractive wooden cabins and apartments. The ski area itself has dedicated children's lifts, several warming huts and a teddy 'bear' ski trail through the forest, while resort facilities include a supermarket, ski hire shop, restaurant and pub, all located at the base of the ski area in a central service building. This safe, quiet environment is the perfect place to introduce children of all ages to skiing and snowboarding.
