Embrace the Serenity of Snowy Trails

The cross-country ski tracks at Gausta are located in beautiful nature at the foot of Gaustatoppen.  The varying world-class ski tracks extend over 85 km and are accessible for everyone.

Please remember

The weather can change very quickly in the mountains. Make sure to check the lift updates and weather forecast on gausta.com or fnugg.no. For avalanche warnings, check varsom.no.

Dress for cold conditions and be aware of the chilling effect of strong winds.

Cross-country skiing

The tracks are prepared every day during the winter season. At the beginning of the season and at Christmas, the tracks are prepared on the weekends. The goal is that the tracks should be prepared by 10 am every day after Christmas.

In April, the trails are only groomed on weekends if conditions permit.

You can follow the piste machine to see which tracks have recently been prepared on the cross-country map.

The organization that is responsible for the cross-country ski trails at Gausta is called Gausta-Kvitåvatn Turistservice (GKT). GKT is operated as a limited company and is owned by private individuals, landowners and companies in the area and Tinn municipality.

Yes, it is possible to bring a dog with you on the trails. Just remember to pick up after your dog, and throw away any trash at the garbage stations. There is a leash requirement between 1 April and 20 August by law, but you as a dog owner are responsible all year round for your dog not rushing towards, jumping on or standing in the way of other people/skiers.
