Approximate planning ranges; allow extra time for traffic and winter conditions.

Åre’s railway station is in the village, with daytime and overnight options from Stockholm. Compare the full journey for your dates rather than assuming a fixed rail time.

Åre Östersund is the closest airport; Trondheim Værnes in Norway is another gateway with a longer onward road journey. Pre-book a transfer, taxi or rental car and check that it reaches your accommodation. Seasonal services and flight connections vary.

SkiStar Bus links the ski areas, with a valid SkiPass serving as the bus ticket. Check the current route, nearest stop and final return for your stay. For a campervan trip, book a designated overnight place separately from day parking.

WHERE TO STAY
