Difficulty: 2/4

Date: 7 - 9. February

Trip leaders: Sarah

Description: Have you ever dreamt of flying over Hardangervidda? I promise you that skisailing comes pretty close to the feeling. We’ll travel by train to Finse on Friday evening and stay overnight at Finsehytta. Alternatively, you can take the train on Saturday morning if that suits you better.

On Saturday, an instructor will teach us the basic techniques of skisailing on Finsevatnet. Compared to kiting, ski sailing can be learnt within half a day leaving us with plenty of time to enjoy Finse. On Sunday, we will rent sails and sail on our own before taking the train back to Bergen on Sunday afternoon.

You need to have experience with skiing (backcountry, touring, or alpine skiing) to join this trip. No prior sailing experience is needed.
