More Slopes, More Possibilities – The Future of Skiing at Idre Himmelfjäll
Development continues at Idre Himmelfjäll, and the future looks very bright for all ski enthusiasts. Right now, extensive work is underway in the mountain landscape, where the next major step in the destination’s expansion is taking shape.
The investment includes seven new runs and a modern 6-seat express lift, with the plan to open the new ski area for Christmas 2026. This will provide both greater variety and better accessibility for skiing. With more slopes to choose from, even better conditions are created for both beginners and experienced skiers to find their favorites.
Have you been here during the year? Then you may already have noticed the changes. The new runs have been carefully developed over time, with work on shaping the ski area carried out with great consideration for the mountain environment. You can already sense the structure of what will soon become a vibrant ski area.
The work currently underway is mainly about completing the infrastructure, such as installing snowmaking systems and building the new lift to ensure a high-quality and sustainable skiing experience from day one.
The new part of the facility is an important step in Idre Himmelfjäll’s long-term vision: to offer a complete mountain experience with a focus on quality, nature, and family-friendly skiing. Here, modern infrastructure and untouched mountain surroundings meet in a way that makes the experience both comfortable and authentic.
Himmelfjäll is growing—carefully, but with an eye to the future. With more runs, a new lift, and attractive accommodation options, Idre Himmelfjäll continues to develop with the goal of becoming an even stronger year-round destination in the Swedish mountains.
