Adventure Residentials – Gold DofE Skiing Residential – Norway

Cross-country skiing is a unique way to experience the beauty of snow-covered landscapes while engaging in a full-body workout. Unlike alpine skiing, it doesn’t rely on ski lifts

Nordic/Cross country skiing is a sport that often stands in the shadow of its bigger brother, alpine skiing, but is very popular in the Alps and Scandinavia.

Why?

Nordic skiing is not only one of the healthiest winter sports out there but is also a fantastic way to glide through the snowy landscape and enjoy the absolute peace and quiet seldom found on ski pistes. This 7-day trip (5 ski days) in Norway is designed to teach you the basics of Nordic skiing and whilst some previous skiing experience is helpful, it is not essential as this trip is primarily aimed at novices. Nordic skiing is not only a fantastic way of staying fit but it is easy to learn, meaning that even beginners will soon be out exploring the trails.

Cost includes accommodation, all meals, hire of skis, poles and boots, expedition maps and safety equipment. Travel to and from the venue from the UK is not included.
