From skiing, dog sledding and fatbiking

FOR SWIMMING AND BOWLING

You wake up refreshed to a long and delicious breakfast, while the sun slowly rises behind the mountain peaks. This holiday should be about the kids, cozy moments and time together as a family. The activity opportunities in Geilo are many, but luckily you have a few days to do everything you want to experience. You take a day on the ski slopes with a delicious lunch at Havsdalskroa, and maybe a small snack in Halstensgård Café. The next day you have booked dog sledding for the whole family, where you get to try to steer your own dog team and after the trip you will have time for dog cuddles and a nice time around the fire.

Later in the evening, an atmospheric snowshoe hike in the winter landscape, provided by Geilo Aktiv - a calm and memorable experience for the whole family. For those who want a little extra excitement, fatbikes are a fun and different way to experience the winter mountains, with wide tires that provide good grip on the snow.

Do you want a day indoors? This includes Havsdalsgrenda, Vestlia Resort, Highland Lodge, Bardøla Fjelltun and Dr. Holm's swimming pool. After you have bathed, it is fun to round off the day with some bowling, both Vestlia Resort and Dr. Holms Hotel have bowling alleys, and offer lane fences that prevent the ball from ending up in the chute. Between swimming and bowling maybe it might be tempting with some pizza and ice-cream, and take the trip to Peppes Pizza.

One of the last days of your holiday is spent skiing, but you also want to visit Langedrag Nature Park, where you get to cuddle with soft, curious goats and beautiful Scottish highland cattle. You will also have the opportunity to take part in feeding reindeer, moose and wolves. One of the evenings you have booked a table at Sofia's Restaurant, it is a cozy gathering place for the whole family with good food and drink, in a warm and pleasant atmosphere. The other evenings are quiet and calm, you enjoy the time together, eat good food and the children may get a little more ice cream and candy than usual!
