Catskiing and Heliskiing in Sweden: Top Outdoor Adventures Awaiting You

Located in the extreme north of Europe, Sweden is one of the Nordic and Scandinavian countries. It borders Norway to the west and north, Finland to the east, and connects with Denmark to the southwest via a bridge-tunnel. By area, Sweden is the third largest country in the European Union. The Scandinavian Mountains stretch along the western border that separates it from Norway, while to the east it has a long coastline. And more than half the land is heavily forested with large chunks of woodland.

Unique skiing experience

If you’re tired of slow-moving ropeways or chairlifts to pull you up the mountains, then hitching a helicopter smoothly and swiftly takes you from the crowds and brings you to the pristine and wild spots of the Swedish mountainside, where the only sound is the skis carving through the snow.
