Alpine skiing and more speed, Haukåsløypa on the Strømsø side is the proper place. Facilities include lifts and slopes of varying degrees of difficulty. Dark nights provide no difficulty here either, for the Alpine slopes are floodlit, of course. The slope is approximately 5 minutes from the town centre. Cross-country skiers will find unique opportunities on both sides of town. More than 100 kilometres of fine tracks await you. You can even enjoy splendid skiing by night if you follow the 42 kilometres of well-maintained lit tracks. Ice skating is another activity to pursue in winter. There are several rinks throughout town, some of the floodlit.
