SAFETY in alpine resorts

In Beitostølen Ski Center (the ski lifts in Beitostølen and Raudalen) we focus on safety and it is important that you as guests take responsibility for both yourself and others.

‼️⚠️‼️⚠️‼️

HERE ARE OUR RULES
that also apply to the national and international alpine industry:

  1. Wear a helmet! You only have one valuable head.
  2. All travel outside marked, secured and groomed trails is at your own risk
  3. Alpine skiing is associated with a certain risk. Drugs and skiing do not go together. Violation of the alpine weather rules may result in expulsion from the facility.
  4. It is forbidden to stay in the alpine resort outside opening hours. This can cause danger to life as construction work with snow production and preparation is in progress.
