Experience the Peer Gynt Trail, one of Norway’s classic cross-country ski routes, on a self-guided hotel-to-hotel ski tour near Lillehammer. The route takes you from the Espedalen valley via Fefor and Gålå to Skeikampen, through varied mountain terrain and some of the finest cross-country skiing areas in Norway.
Skiing through the Norwegian mountains
The route crosses open mountain landscapes at around 700–1,500 metres above sea level, with views towards Jotunheimen, Rondane and Dovrefjell. The Peer Gynt Trail is regularly groomed for classic cross-country skiing and offers a mix of gentle sections, climbs and descents, with daily stages that are manageable for experienced recreational skiers.
The tour combines active days outdoors with comfortable stays at hotels and mountain lodges. At several destinations, you stay for two nights, giving you the flexibility to explore each area more.
Ski with just a daypack
We transfer your luggage between accommodations, so you only need to carry what you need for the day. Maps and detailed route information are provided, allowing you to follow the trail independently and travel at your own pace.
The Peer Gynt Trail is a good choice if you have some previous cross-country skiing experience and are comfortable skiing for several hours a day in varied mountain terrain. You should also be confident navigating independently using maps and route information.
With groomed trails, carefully planned stages, luggage transfer and comfortable accommodation along the way, this is a convenient way to experience Norwegian mountain skiing without a guide.
Ski from Espedalen to Skeikampen and experience the Peer Gynt Trail at your own pace.
