Top to Top - Fjätervålen and Städjan

Two iconic mountains, unbeatable skiing and an unforgettable hiking adventure all in one day.

Do you dream of pristine snow covers, magical views and varied skiing? This tour takes you on the best of both worlds. We start smoothly in Fjätervålen where the lift gives us a comfortable lift to the heights, before we set the first track of the day in the snow.

Halfway we land at the cozy Rybbäckskojan for a well-deserved lunch break in the middle of the magnificent mountain world. With new energy in our legs and climbing skins, we then begin the ascent of the characteristic Städjan. If the gods and snow conditions are with us, we'll crown the day with an epic ride down the south side of the mountain, before the ski bus rolls us safely back.

The tour is led by an authorized mountain guide and is adapted according to weather and snow conditions.

PROGRAM

09:00 Gathering at the ski school. Review of the day, equipment, distribution of shovel, probe and tranciver included to borrow. We'll go over how it works and do a tranciver check. When we are done, we take the lift up. The last bit up to the top of Fjätervålen we take with the ladder skins on. Time for the first ride of the day.

Down in the forest, it's time to pull on the climbing skins again to take us to Rybäckskojan next to the murmuring brook Foskan. Here we make a stop for lunch bags that you yourself have with you.

From Rybäckskojan we ski up the mythical and iconic mountain Städjan. In winter, the alpine feeling is amplified depending on how windy it is and snow conditions on the ridge. We go downhill on the south side of the mountain down to Grängesåvallen where we will fit in the ski bus for transport back to Fjätervålen. The bus leaves at 15.30 from Grängesåvallen ** (note at the time of this writing there is no current timetable for winter 26/27. The time is from the previous winter)**
