Skiing rentals ski areas and lessons

Did you know that? It is possible to ski in Iceland! So, of course, it won't be on the level of some French slopes, but still. Nicknamed the "Alps of the Eastern Fjords", this 705m high pass has a ski area with a 2.5km long run. It is even possible to ski in the middle of the night as one of the slopes is still lit! There are 9 km of blue, red and black runs. You can also go cross-country skiing, rent skis or have a hot drink in the cafeteria.
