For being so late in the season, it was very good. The locals told me that the off piste is much better earlier in the year.

Following a mediocre Jan 2023 trip to Morzine where snow quality was awful, we decided to head North to Trysil this time to all but guarantee snow.

Turned out to be a good decision because we had lots of runs available to keep us busy for the week. Not all runs were open as it was still early in the season and hadn’t been the best start to the year for weather, but the latitude meant it was much better than our previous trip to Morzine in Jan 2023 which had zero snow meaning the entire region descended onto nearby Avoriaz.

SkiStar is the local company who run the resort and have a monopoly on everything such as equipment hire and lessons. However they are really good and very reasonably priced compared to resorts in the Alps.

Unfortunately what’s not reasonably priced is the cost of food and drink in resort. Alcohol is especially expensive due to government taxes so make sure you load up on the duty free shop in the baggage collection hall at Oslo airport.

If you love tree lined runs, this is the place for you. Especially love the runs in Hogegga which has lots of interconnecting runs through the trees. Blue 78 was a firm favourite for us.

A bit too many button lifts for my liking but 6 seater chairlifts do the bulk of the lifting high up the mountain. Plus there’s a new fully enclosed gondola opening in Dec 2025 that will make things a lot easier/quicker to get from the main Turistsenteret area (where Radisson Blu hotel is) to Hoyfjellssenteret is at the other side of the mountain.

Bottom line is would we go back ? The answer is definitely, which is exactly what we’re doing in Jan 2026. The pros outweigh the cons so it was an easy decision for us.

Thankfully early season snow is already looking much better so hoping to try it all the slopes that were closed last time. Or at least the blues and gentle reds one. Anything more than that is an accident waiting to happen for our skill level !
