Olympiaparken

About the arena Birkebeiner Skistadion is a complete cross-country ski and biathlon stadium, easily accessible at the top of Lillehammer. It was the Olympic arena for cross country skiing and biathlon, both in '94 and the Youth Olympics 2016. Birkebeineren Skistadion is an ideal starting point for trips across the mountains, and is linked to a trail network on 450 km.

With the very edge of the mountains as starting point, visitors have every opportunity to experience cross-country skiing at its best. The network of trails connects to the Lillehammer, Hafjell and Sjusjoen networks, and over 2,500 km of trails are available in total. The mountain plateaus, offering cross-country ski trails through open and gentle terrain, are within easy reach. If the weather turns bad, the forests close by provide excellent shelter from the wind. Nordseter offers excellent ski and equipment hire facilities.
