Åre is Sweden’s largest ski resort and one of the biggest ski areas in Scandinavia. Located in Jämtland, in northwestern Sweden, it stretches from around 390 m up to 1,420 m, offering a vertical drop of about 1,030 m. The resort features over 100 km of slopes across roughly a hundred runs, served by around 30 lifts, including gondolas and a historic funicular that climbs to the top of Åreskutan. Åre is renowned for hosting World Cup races and Alpine World Championships, thanks to its technical and varied terrain that suits beginners and experts alike. Beyond alpine skiing, it offers snowparks, off-piste areas, cross-country trails, and a lively village scene with restaurants, bars, and shops. With its cosmopolitan vibe and stunning mountain landscapes, Åre is often called Sweden’s “ski capital.”
