Stryn Summer Ski Centre
Stryn Sommarski
A summer ski area on the Tystigbreen glacier by Strynefjell pass, where you can ski in short sleeves in June and July. It is one of the best-known summer ski areas in Northern Europe.
Stryn Summer Ski Centre sits on the Tystigbreen glacier, about 40 km east of Stryn town, along the old Strynefjell mountain road. It lies at an elevation of roughly 1,000 to 1,600 meters. Snow stays deep into early summer every year, drawing snowboarders, alpine skiers, and cross-country skiers from across Northern Europe. There is a chairlift and a drag lift, a ski run about 2 km long, and a ski rental shop and café at the base. Visitors who don't ski can still ride the lift up to see the glacier and snowfields. It usually opens from early June to mid-to-late July, 10:00–16:00, with hours adjusted to snow conditions, so check the official website before you go. Note: the mountain is windy and cold, so sunglasses and sunscreen are essential.
Opening hours
Approx. June–July 10:00–16:00 (subject to snow conditions)
