Winter's news in Branäs

We are building on last year's successes and creating even more memories for families - both on the slopes and off. Ahead of the 25/26 season, there will be an expanded and improved snow system. A classic venue will receive a complete renovation, a popular lift will be upgraded and our Guest Service will take further steps for a modern and smooth guest experience.

Expanded and improved snow system

We are investing heavily in the snow system this year to ensure a long season with good conditions on as many slopes as possible, as early as possible.

  • A brand new pump house increases snow capacity by 75 percent.
  • More snow cannons can now produce snow simultaneously, which means we can open more slopes faster.
  • The result is both more open at start of the season and better snow quality throughout the winter.

Upgrading the snow system in Västersjö

A popular slope located near our largest residential area will have better conditions this winter. By moving the entire snowmaking system on the slope, we can now upgrade it and provide better access to skiing in the area.

  • The system can now also be used for warmer temperatures and during shorter cold periods thanks to automatic snow cannons.
  • This means that areas that previously had to wait for snow can now access slopes and lifts significantly earlier.
  • The sea express becomes available more quickly from nearby areas.

New and improved Lolift

The popular Loliften 2 has received a major upgrade ahead of the season, creating more space at Ladan and a more efficient flow in one of our most active areas.

  • The lift is replaced with a new and more modern model with higher operational reliability.
  • The claim is moved forward which provides larger areas at Ladan and access to the Logläntan children's area.
  • The step is moved, which opens up for an easier descent towards the bridge.

Brants – a new restaurant experience

Our popular restaurant Brants has a new face:

  • Lounge area will be completely renovated with a new, larger bar and fireplace for extra coziness
  • Improved après-ski – we have honed the details that elevate the entire experience
  • The environment and the interior design has been given a lift – for an even more pleasant atmosphere, day and night.

Small changes – big difference in experience

More fun on snow

We are adding more details to the ski area and our activities, including:

  • The hill at Björnbuseland By will have fun tracks for the little ones to ride on.
  • We are building a real ski cross start with handles.
  • STIGA Snow Race Challenge will be a parallel track so more people can ride at the same time and also challenge each other
  • Skidborgarmärken – We are working further and developing the concept further to encourage the joy of skiing in children.

Children's cutlery in our accommodations

We continue to make it easier for families with children. Now there is children's cutlery in our own accommodations, making it easier to set the table for the whole family.

Snow system in the electric light trail

For the season, we will start, in collaboration with our cottage owners' association, a multi-year project to build a snow system around our electric lighted track on Berget. By the season, the first stage will be completed, which will enable us to offer artificial snow on a smaller part of the track. This means that the snow in the cross-country ski tracks will be more resilient for most of the season than before.
