Cross-country skiing at Lemonsjøen

The ski trails in the Lemonsjø area offer great conditions for everyone - regardless of fitness and shape. Here you can choose short or long tours and easy or more demanding trails. The terrain varies between gentle forests and rugged mountains. The trails are groomed and maintained between December and April, depending on weather and snow conditions. Most of the trails in the area have double tracks and some sections adapted for ice skating.

A classic is the round around Lemonsjøen, 14 km in beautifully varied terrain - views of Glittertind in Jotunheimen and Rondeslottert in Rondane spice up the experience! Extend your trip and take in the super cozy shelter at Megardsåsen, the cultural landscape around Sandranden and Klonessetra. On windy days, we recommend the hike to Slombsetrene, 6km in a fairytale forest - the black wooden fox assures you of absolutely clean air! For longer hikes, you can take the Gråhø round trip, over to Brimi or the Jotunheimen trail that stretches all the way to Gjende. The Mån light trail system is great, even during the day. 1 and 2 km training laps, ski cross, dosed toboggan run and shelter. The facility is located 10km from the mountain lodge in the direction of Vågå.

Vågåfjell Turløypelag is responsible for trail running in the area. Information about trails, updated trail information and maps can be found at skisporet.no/lemonsjø. Paper maps are also available at Lemonsjø Fjellstue & Hyttegrend. The trail team also has its own Facebook page with lots of great photos, check in for fresh impressions!

All cabins and rooms belonging to Fjellstua are perfectly located for cross-country skiing - ski in/ski out!

Winter is time for outdoor activities, cross-country skiing and cabin fun! We have put together the winter package "Be a Norwegian for a Week". A true Norwegian winter holiday experience! Stay comfortably in the cabin, enjoy a good breakfast and 3-course dinner at the mountain lodge and try out a selection of activities for a typical winter holiday such as cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, dog sledding, possibly a game of FjellKørling and a trip to the village on rainy days.
