Easter skiing in Åre

March 21st, 2008

Skiing over Easter is something of a tradition and the Swedish resort Åre is the ideal place for it. It is not only the largest and most popular resort in Sweden, drawing in people from all over the country, you'll also spot skiers from Norway, Finland, Estonia, even Russia.

This year's trip was blessed with excellent weather, which always makes a big difference in the mountains. Here's a bunch of pictures from the resort (hosted on deviantart).

There's also a short clip of me skiing down the slopes (hosted on youtube).

Now that's a way to spend Easter! :star:
