Show Your SKIlls

The long, brisk Northern slopes, the demanding slope pair of the North-West, three black slopes, Mountain Dew Snow Park with boxes, pipes, rails and presses, as well as the international scale moguls in West, guarantee alternatives and challenges for more advanced skiers, either on skis or on snowboards. Those who are “not quite there yet,” can take their first slides in the Northern Hiihtokoulu slope, where the easy slope and a free lift make it fun and easy to get started. More alternatives for juniors and beginners offer the Peikkorinne and Joonan kumpu slopes with 3 free lifts in the Western slopes. All children under the age of 7, with their helmets on, ski free with adults!

HimoSNOW – Almost Around the Clock and Throughout the Year

Thanks to the slope connection routes, the whole Himos area acts as a unified ski resort, enabling you to ski from one slope area to another. Totally 15 lifts in the area make sure that you spend your time skiing, not queuing.

Time flies skiing, but in Himos you can continue skiing until late in the evening. Illuminated slopes in the middle of the dark Central Finnish night create an atmosphere you can only experience in Finland!

Excellent snow conditions and the long skiing season are guaranteed with modern, efficient snowmaking equipment and our extensive snow-how.

This season’s activities celebrate the 25th anniversary, and there is something for everybody, e.g. slalom contests, equipment tests, product promotions, playful competitions, tours and Easter-time costume party! December 29: Himos 25th anniversary party
