We have snow from early November until April and a range of crosscountry trails and downhill pistes and lifts that are groomed and in operation for as long as possible. The first summer guests usually begin to arrive as the last ski enthusiasts are leaving!
Summer at Gålå provides the opportunity for mountaineering, mountain biking, canoeing, walking, riding, swimming or playing tennis in glorious surroundings. You can even go on an “elk safari” !

In Gålå we live in and from nature. This is why environmental consciousness is serious business for all of us. Our goal in participating in these environmental programmes is to make the company’s colleagues and guests more aware of the unique environment surrounding us at Gålå. For more than 100 years, Gålå has accommodated visitors, and we would like our nature, culture and traditions to be protected and preserved.
