    Current snow conditions in the mountains

    Snow conditions in the mountains are currently variable. In several areas, the snow cover is thin or uneven, which can make nordic backcountry skiing difficult. This primarily affects the mountain regions around Helags, Vålådalen, Lunndörren, Anaris, and Oviken mountains, as well as Sonfjället. Below you’ll find the current snow conditions in the areas where STF has mountain cabins and mountain stations:
