A good ski resort for those looking for quiet, easy-to-navigate runs to hone their skills. More experienced skiers/boarders will quickly cover all skiable terrain (we had completed all runs by day 3 of a week-long trip).

The resort itself was extremely quiet at the start of the week, with most bars and pubs completely deserted, but the atmosphere picked up toward the weekend, which was a welcome change.

A beautiful place and ski instructors were really good as a complete beginner... Food & drinks were expensive but accommodation at the apartments was great & place to shop so you can cook a bit .. Beginning of season so nightlife could have been better but had alot of potential .. overall I had a great time .. Everyone was really polite & helpful...Will definitely return in the future.

I have visited Beitøstolen twice now, both times with a group of beginners/first time skiers. It has a a really calm and friendly feel which is un-intimidating and perfect for building confidence on skis.

A great resort for beginners and those looking to advance from little experience. Only the bottom lifts were open when I went due to lack of snow which was a shame. But overall great resort with friendly staff.

Nice slopes in the main area , which are quiet . The black runs on the otherside with free transport.
The town as plenty of restaurants and bars . Lots of accommodation to choose from , diffidently worth a visit and great for children to learn to ski.
The snow rafting and body boarding is great.
