    For a slope just on the outskirts of the city this was great. Easy to get to, equipment hire and skipass was simple and efficient. (Note no need for a ski pass for the children's/beginners area). Park was of a good quality and the views of the area beautiful. Only a few slopes but plenty for learning on or if you want to use the park. The restaurant was basic and slightly overrun but friendly staff and a good place to hide from the cold with hot food and drinks.

    🔸️ WINTER After a great deal of work done by Skistar in Summer, the slopes in winter are now much wider and artificial snow quality is enjoyable. There are 2 T-bar lifts and they were working well when we visited. The lifts were manned and staff was present to help you get on. There is a ski rental shop onsite and a cafe if you need to warm up. Planning a 2-3 hours ski should be sufficient since this is a small hill. Load your ski pass online as this saves time and money. 🔸️ SUMMER In Summer, it is free to visit and walk up the hill. The scenery is a beautiful panorama of Stockholm city and Nacka nature reserve. The Mountain Coaster is a thrilling ride that takes you on a mini roller coaster and actually not scary at all. The views from the coaster are worth a million bucks. Tickets can be bought onsite by scanning a QR code and paying by Swish.

    Winter: well, what you can expect for such a short slope (less than 100m height). But at least the tracks are designed decently and there's the snow Park. 3/5 Summer: they added quite a lot of activities, the climbing park is very fun, the roller coaster, summer skiing... Plus overall is a good place in Stockholm city to do some outdoor walking when the weather is nice. 4.5/5

    Rude staff that sold us a ski pass even though we only wanted to use the beginners area so turns out we wasted £50. Very unhelpful and unwelcoming. Saw a couple of people fall on the ski lift and the staff didn’t even try to help, just kept sending people up. Only saving grace is that the ski rental is Fairly cheap and once you get up to the beginners slope it’s fun. 100% would not go again though.

    Nice little ski resort with a few small but fun runs and a good view of the city. Friendly staff and easy to get to. Definitely worth it for the view and the novelty!

    We waited for 2 hours on 27th December 2023 to obtain our ski equipment, despite the fact that we had prebooked online!!!! We also had issues regarding the ski passes. I was asked to pay for the ski passes again!! Luckily, the manager was around and tried to fix the issue quickly and I did not have to pay for ski passes again.

    Great place to go if you want just a day of skiing during the cold weekends in Stockholm, so convenient to get to if you are based in the city. Really good for beginners and the kids slope is great! But not very challenging if you are used to steeper slopes, the alps or bigger ski areas. You can rent all your equipment on site and buy both full or half day passes depending on your preference. There’s also night skiing during the week, if you fancy a few hours after work.

    Really cool adventure. Both kids ( 11, 15 years old), and adults really enjoyed it.

    Great place if you're learning how to ski or snowboard. If you're more experienced is fun but the slopes are short. The black slope was closed when I was there because lack of snow.

    A very cool experience. Skiing right in the city. We picked a busy day, but had bought the passes and paid for the equipment hire online before, so only had a short wait to pick up the gear. They use an app for managing the queues, so make sure you bring your mobile and it's fully charged. You don't need a pass if you only want to use the beginners/learning area, which we did for a while. Afterwards, I tried some of the proper runs, while my son had a hot chocolate in the cafe. Great views over the city and altogether a fine experience.

    Not worth it! Not friendly to beginners. Questionable security, quality and convenience. Ski rental is super slow. You are going to spend more than an hour waiting for your equipment in the queue. When we got ours people around us were really disappointed. And I know why. The place is tiny, poorly organized and the workers are slow too. The lifts are also weird. The anchors are spaced unevenly. Some are extremely far away from the previous one. Some are very very close, like two meters apart. What in thebworld is that??? But the worst is that they stop often! The lift on the green slope got broken multiple times while we were there. The anchor lift been stopping every second ride we took. What's funny is that if it stops it goes the opposite direction with you. You are sliding down!!! Never seen this happening in other places. The weather was pretty windy when we were there. The wind was dragging me on the snowboard to the side a couple of meters. But if you take the right lift you risk being dragged out on the grass field out of the slope where ice blocks await you. So it gets pretty difficult to navigate and you can get stuck and fall. Now on the top there are zero fences!!! If you accidentally slide/fall down you risk being injured. Verdict: not worth it! Go to Flottsbro ar any other place outside Stockholm!

    Stockholm city skimountain lives on the summer as well! Except the regular stunning view theres a mountain coaster, tube rides, skiing on ”grass”, adventure park with climbing & obstacles and zip-lines… Costs a bit but worth it! I tried the coaster, go for many rides!!!

    Not a massive number of slopes, but really friendly staff, short lift queue and easy to jump onto rented ski's and go with minimal fuss. I had a great few hours!

  • 4/5 Chris U. 8 months ago on Google
    It's a bit off grid, but when you able to walk 500m you can use public transport. The summer toboggan is fun but also kinda short.

    Schöner Ort mit super Blick über die Stadt, auch ohne all die möglichen Aktivitäten. Wegeführung zum Teil etwas verwirrend.

    Worst ski experience so far - we pre booked skis and passes but their system was ‘down’ so we were forced to wait in snow for 30mins. Honestly what’s wrong with this place…

    Great afternoon, 3 hour lift pass just enough for What’s there. 3 runs, 1 red, 1 blue, 1 blue/ green. Really easy to get to on the tram. All equipment hired.
