Details

Join Gutsy Girls for a seven night Beginner Downhill Skiing Adventure in Norway’s Tyin mountains, an alpine escape filled with expert coaching, confidence-building, and breathtaking scenery. Each day you’ll progress, from your first turns to skiing with ease, guided by patient instructors on quiet slopes surrounded by fjords and snowy peaks.

This trip is designed for women eager to learn how to ski from the ground up in a crowd-free environment while sharing the journey with like-minded adventurers. Beyond the slopes, you’ll enjoy hearty Norwegian meals, riverside sauna sessions, and the laughter that comes from conquering challenges together (and reliving some tumbles too).

Why Norway for Skiing?

  • Learn from scratch – Structured daily lessons take you from your first wobbly turns to confidently skiing down the mountain.
  • Epic scenery – Tyin sits at 1,000m above sea level, surrounded by fjords, forests, and jagged peaks at the gateway to Jotunheimen National Park.
  • Balance and bliss – Riverside sauna sessions and hearty three-course dinners keep you recharged after long days on the slopes.
  • Mid-week watery adventure – Swap skis for paddles with a winter kayaking trip on Sognefjord, Norway’s longest and deepest fjord.

Highlights

  • Six days of skiing: Daily small-group coaching with experienced instructors, plus free afternoons to practice.
  • Winter kayaking on Sognefjord: Paddle between towering mountains, warm up in a mobile sauna, and try a polar plunge if you dare.
  • Riverside sauna: Recover tired legs with panoramic views over the Begna River.
  • Quiet resort: No queues, no crowds, just space to learn and progress at your own pace.
  • Local cuisine: Three-course dinners featuring Norwegian specialties like reindeer and warming soups.

🔥 Difficulty Level
This trip is rated moderate. No prior skiing experience is required, but you’ll need decent fitness and resilience for consecutive days on the slopes. Expect 6–7 hours of activity daily, split between structured lessons and practice sessions. Falls are part of the process, and by the end of the week you’ll have real downhill skiing skills.

This is for women who want to learn, laugh, and challenge themselves in one of Norway’s most magical mountain regions. Join us if you’re ready to ski, paddle, sweat, and soak in the alpine mountain views.

📍 Location
Tyin, Norway, is midway between Oslo and Bergen, yet remote once you’re surrounded by glaciers and high mountain terrain. One of Southern Norway’s snowiest areas, the resort offers deep powder, prepared trails, and varied slopes.

🛏️ Accommodation
Stay in a newly-renovated mountain hotel with private bathrooms, proper beds, and views straight onto the towering peaks. After days spent skiing, you’ll be glad of the comfort and the riverside sauna sessions.
