Visit Voss in central Norway with The Co-operative Travel, and discover an unbeatable combination of a charming ski village set in a magical lakeside location.
Unspoiled and friendly, Voss’s ski slopes are fabulously scenic, with the natural snow being supplemented by new artificial white powder in order to maximise your opportunities to get out there and sample the action.
Runs cater for all ability levels, including off-piste areas. Indeed, the variety of the terrain, and the locals’ love of their winter sports, are such that Voss proudly claims to have nurtured more Winter Olympic champions than any other comparable location.
A captivating lakeside location makes Voss ideal for enjoying the more idyllic side of a ski holiday, with sightseeing excursions including a day trip to the city of Bergen, scenic fjord cruise, and ride on the famous Flåm mountain railway all essential parts of your stay.
Voss comprises two distinct areas, Voss Resort and Voss Fjellandsby, the former a long-established resort close to Voss town itself. This is a compact skiing resort, accessed by cable car whose terminal is a 15-minute walk from downtown Voss, with beginner and expert slopes, and cross-country trails.
Voss Fjellandsby is a developing resort, with great potential for cross-country skiing – a far more popular form of the sport here than the downhill variety – and trails suitable for all ability levels.
Both resorts are served by plentiful accommodation, falling into several categories from hostels, through cabins and lodges, to luxurious hotels where you can be truly pampered and spoiled.
Recently-opened express lifts in both resorts take you from your accommodation to the centre of the action in a matter of minutes, so you can make the most of your time on the slopes on your Co-operative Travel ski holiday.
With Voss set to stage the International Skiing Federation’s freestyle world championships in 2013, the resort is sure to experience a new surge in popularity.
But you can discover it before the rush, with the help of The Co-operative Travel. Get in there first - check for availability on your preferred dates today, then book your Voss winter ski holiday. In a few years’ time, you’ll be able to say that world champions followed in your ski tracks!
