Ski trails in the forest around Skien fritidspark run in wide, nice routes and are perfect for a short ski trip or a real training session. You will find signposted circular trails that are 1 km, 2.5 km and 5 km long. The trails are light trails and the lights come on at dusk. The light is on until 10 p.m. every evening.
The trails are groomed by the Park Service about twice a week or as needed. Feel free to contact the Skien service center on tel. 35 58 10 00 or the website of Skien municipality for the status of the slopes.
