Snowkiting in Norway

What does a day look like at the camp?

A certain routine always develops very quickly. The house wakes up at around eight o'clock - very slowly and without an alarm clock. There is stress elsewhere, but not with us.

First there is a decent breakfast with Norwegian strawberry jam (insider tip!) eggs, bacon and fresh fruit, because you need strength for the day. At ten o'clock we drive up to the plateau. 

With two cars we go to the spot with the best wind and snow conditions. We kite there all day long and usually take breaks near our car. Since we have two cars, we are very flexible. Often a group can get together and take a longer break and drive to a café at the pass and treat themselves to a coffee with insanely delicious waffles by the fireplace or an exorbitantly expensive € 10.- beer. But it tastes fantastic. 

At around 5:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. we will return to the hut. Then the sauna is turned on, we cook together and check photo and film material. We end the evening by the open fireplace with a large glass of red wine.

You get as much practice time in Norway as you do in Austria in four years. This will make you tremendous progress. Even we ourselves are always surprised how much one can learn there!

It definitely makes sense to use our kite material, because then you are always well equipped for all conditions. So if you do not have your own or not the appropriate equipment, you are welcome to rent it from us. Flysurfer specializes in foil kites and you can't go wrong with that.

We offer the highest quality. Our many years of experience as snow kite instructors guarantee you quick learning success. Usually you have to set your goals again within this week - no, we are by no means overbearing. You get as many practice hours concentrated in one week as you do in Austria in several years. This will help you learn a lot. Kite handling is the be-all and end-all whether on the water or on the snow. That's exactly what you are going to perfect here in Norway.

You get amazingly good light wind skills and learn how to loop up the mountain. You will also practice your kite relaunch and become a better kiter in general. 

We have heard the sentence many times: 'I no longer need training'. However, we see every little mistake and can correct it. We also believe that there is always something to learn.

Our house is located in the mountains between the ski resort Geilo and Haugastol.

You can expect a lovingly furnished Norwegian hut with underfloor heating, an open fireplace, a sauna and a fantastic view of the mountains.

There are two double rooms and three rooms with two single beds each. The rooms on the ground floor are very popular and are allocated in the order of booking. This means that whoever registers first can still choose from all rooms.

We dedicate € 100.- budget per person for food. We have eaten very well for this amount in recent years, because shopping for the group makes it cheaper. As an individual, the budget would be used up in three days. We always cook together in the evening and end the day comfortably in front of the fireplace.

Once we will have pizza in Geilo (approx. € 20, -) and on the last evening (Saturday) there will be a final dinner in the snowkit hotel (approx. € 35, -). 

Together we fly with Austrian Airlines directly from Vienna to Oslo. Of course you can also arrive from another airport. We will then send you the exact flight times. 

If you choose the Economy Classic tariff at Austrian, the ski luggage is included free of charge. Then you can take 8kg hand luggage, 23kg normal luggage and 23kg ski luggage. Sometimes one or the other kite slips into our ski luggage. 

Flight cost: app. € 200.-

Money: You don't need to change money in advance. We always withdraw money directly at the airport in Oslo, because you get the best exchange rate. In general, you can pay almost anything up there in Norway with your credit card. Even in the smallest café in the middle of nowhere.

Internet: Norway is in the EU roaming zone. That means you can use your mobile internet as normal and consume your free units.

We would be happy to send you an offer for cancellation and / or travel insurance.
