Welcome: Sat 16th and Sun 17th between 9:00-15:00.

We have had a couple of weeks with sun and plus degrees. It has felt like spring was in the air, but now winter is back - lovely! Yesterday and today it has been snowing making the mountains pure white again. The slopes are amazing and with a forecast predicting more snow and minus degrees to come - the conditions are, and will be magic!

We are open daily until April 7th. Warmly welcome

It is time for the Swedish school holidays and we welcome all our guests. What a start we got-radiant sunshine and a few minus degrees. We hope it will last for the remaining weeks.

Some tips:
1. Pre-book your equipment via rommealpin.se. This way it is ready to pick up immediately when you arrive. Go to our FÖRBOKAT- doors and do not forget your reservation number. You can pre-book until 06:00 upon your day of arrival.

2. Be here early! The rental and Ski shop open at. 8:00 in the morning, so pick up your pre-booked equipment early and you'll get out on the slopes quickly.

3. Also, pre-order your SkiPass on our website or MITT ROMME- app and go directly to the lift.

Have a nice on the slopes!

I just want so share some photos from the other day when the sun suddenly brook through the clouds and gave us an amazing Wednesday. All the slopes are i great condition and during the weekdays it is pretty calm. 

We are now experience some colder days so be sure to dress properly and take an extra look at your friends face to avoid frostbite damage. Maybe take an extra break at Toppstugan or Våffelstugan to get warm.

But, as always, have fun and enjoy your visit!

As the headline says, wow, is a word to describe Romme Alpin at the moment. All slopes are open and prepared with perfection. Yesterday' s and today's snowfall has transformed the mountains to a fluffy white dreamland.

During the weekdays (week 3-5) it is also very calm in the slopes and no queues, so you can ski och snowboard as much as you want. According to the app MITT ROMME, one person has made 85 runs during a day! That also is also a huge "wow"!

We are happy to announce that all 33 slopes and 13 lifts are open! And for the moment we have magical conditions on the mountains. 2019 has really started well. Two days ago we got a cosy snowfall that made all the trees white again and gave the resort a perfect framing.

If you really want to enjoy the best experience - now is the time to visit us!

Today we opened the second new slope - Lenas Svarta - an amazing slope, if you ask me! Perfect for those wide and soft turns. This slope, together with Brömses and the new Götes Express lift is a fantastic contribution to Romme Alpin.

We have also opened the whole Calles Kurvor ( Juniorpark ) at Romme Nord.
It looks like all 33 slopes will be open in the middle of next week. It was a long time since all slopes was open this early in the season. We are happy!

Wishing you a pleasant visit!

Today we opened the new slope Brömses and the new 6-chair Expresslift Götes Express. We had a gang of five that took the first ride i both the lift and the slope. Afterwards they all agreed that it was awesome fun!

Today we also got the news that we are done with the snow making. Now, all we need to do is to prepare all the slopes;) We have not been this early in many years! Hopefully all slopes can be open in a couple of weeks. 

Romme Alpin is now open for the season and we are so happy welcoming all our guests. We have plenty of snow and our grooming machines are now working hard to get more slopes ready. 

All restaurants are open and all the other facilities. We are now looking forward to a white and happy Christmas.

It is time to get this season started. On Thursday, December 20th we will open 8 slopes and 8 lifts. We have great conditions with lots of snow. Many more slopes are ready with snow - we just need to let the grooming machines to do their work. Hopefully, more slopes can open during the weekend.

Among the criteria that are fundamental when it comes to the slopes at Romme Alpin there are fall line, variation, experience and structure. When we will open for the 2018/19 season, there will be 33 slopes for you to ski on. Ever wondered how a slope is built? This is how we do it here at Romme Alpin:

For several months Bo Funcke, CEO of Romme Alpin, takes long walks up and down the prospective slope. In his backpack he carries barricade tape in various colours, measuring instruments and one of the many maps he works with on a daily basis.

- I dedicate a lot of time to a new slope. The whole process begins in my head a few years before I even start sketching a potential outline for a slope. There are many factors that need to be taken into consideration. For example, what degree of difficulty I want that slope to have, in relation to the possibilities that the mountain naturally offers. When I get to the drawing board, I usually sketch different options considering the map's height curves, rocks and water streams. The most important thing is to find the fall line, so that the slope will offer a comfortable and smooth ride. This can easily be done just by looking at a map, but the reality is different. It is only when I go up on the mountain and start walking the area that I can definitely decide whether there is the actual possibility to build a slope where I had planned it.

As a former orienteering athlete, Bo navigates the forest smoothly. He is trained at reading maps and can easily apply the information to the reality. The first step in the creation of a new slope is to mark the centre of the slope, the centre line. You mark the outline by tying the red and white striped tape on the trees about every 15 metres. The you proceed marking the outer edges of the slope on both sides in the same way.

- When the centre line is marked and after it has been adjusted a few times, I can start measuring the planned width of the slope. If I then see that it is not possible to follow my original planning, I go back and do some more adjusting to the measurements. The most important thing is that I always follow the fall line, in order to avoid creating a slope that lies obliquely. I am also very careful to select to keep the right trees on the sides of the slope. The best ones are bushy firs with branches all the way down the trunk. They reduce the risk of accidents and give a much nicer feel to the place than the long and straight pines.

Bo's explorations and tree markings go on for several months; making adjustment after adjustment. In the end the number of ribbons of barricade tape marking the future slope's center line, outer edges and tree trunks amounts to over 300.

- Sometimes our guests may get the impressions that we forgot to remove some trees in the process, but all our 260 groves are planned to be where they are, and they are there for a reason. If there are trees in the middle of our slopes, our customers need to be aware of them. You cannot just go as fast as you can on every slope. If there's a tree you need to slow down and adjust your speed. Besides, the groves give the whole slope experience a further dimension.

Bo stresses several times upon the importance of creating experiences, that the slopes should be both exciting and engaging. For example, you should not be able to see where the slope ends when you're up at the start. Furthermore, you should get a new view around every corner or behind every grove. You should be able to glide down going from side to side without problems and even change slope without having to scream “Out of the way!!”

- The fall line is oftentimes not straight and therefore the slopes need to naturally bend. I have spent so much time designing the curves because I want our ski resort to be well designed. This is a choice that draws inspiration from the many visits I took to ski resorts in the United States. I have been skiing there many times myself and there are many resorts there where I believe they have succeeded in creating a true skiing experience, which is also my goal for Romme Alpin. Having a variety of different slopes, you have the opportunity to get a new skiing experience at every ride. So, you are not forced to only ski down the same slope the whole day.

Building a slope following all of Bo's criteria takes, as you may have guessed, quite some time. Once all the striped tapes are tied around all the right spots, the clearing of the forest begins, and all the materials are in some way reused. The logs and sticks are used for burning, while the stumps, roots and rocks will be used as filling materials. Since the terrain is inaccessible, it is not possible to get soil or other construction materials delivered. 

Therefore, the slopes are made with the materials found in nature. At this point we're about five years away from the first sketches on the map done by Bo in the first stages of the planning of a new slope. When the land preparation job is completed, all the piping for the snow cannons are hauled, put into place and the underground water drainage system is completed. If required, lift stations and pillars are built. It is only then that we are finally ready for the cold and the snow to come.

The summer has ended and you can almost feel that winter is on it way. It shifted really fast. In the northers parts of Dalarna and Norrland the first snow has already fallen.

On our mountains the preparation is on full speed. The snowguns are being prepared to start working in November if the temperatures are right.
The Ski Lodges´ rooms are being cleaned, the restaurant is creating tasty menus and the the new pistemaps are being drawned. You are aware that we are opening two new blacked marked slopes and a new 6-Chair Expresslift this season?!

It will be an awesome winter season and if you want to be part of it, we are now making the final recruiting for this season. Read all about it here

On November 17th we will start our used sale. The ski-shop will be open from 9am- 3 pm. The ticketing machine will be available from 7am.

The used sale will include alpine skis and ski boots, no snowboards or snowblades.

Prices will range from 350 SEK and above on ski boots and from 400SEK and above on skis.

Well, as promised. Here is an update from the mountain.

We are now dismantle the old 2-chair lift. It has been at our service for 20 years. But now it is being replaced by our fifth 6-chair Expresslift.

The top of Solklinten will be a new gathering point, bringing Solklinten Express, Syd Express and Toppstugan much closer together. It will improve the access to these areas.

The two new slopes will be in the same category as Götes Brant. It looks good, right?!

You may already know that we are building 2 new slopes and one new lift. Everything is planned to be ready to our opening.

Here is a glimpse of the new pistemap. Hopefully we can show you some more of the progress on the mountain very shortly. We have said it earlier, and will say it many times again - it will be an awesome winter!

But for now - enjoy the summer!

It is summer and we are working on the seasonal news for next season.  We have a team up working on the mountain creating the two new slopes. They are putting together pipes for the snow system and the final adjustments in the slopes vertical drop is made. It is going to be awesome this coming winter!

Welcome to our new website!

We hope that you will enjoy all our new features and improve online booking system. For now, it's only the site that is running, but only in a few weeks the online booking will open and the whole product catalogue of the 2018/2019 season.
