SkiStar Hammarbybacken |
A very cold and snowy December means that the
Hammarby Backen ski slope is open for business much earlier than in previous years! It officially opened on December 13th. Does Hammarby offer as high quality skiing as the Alps or even the mountains of northern Sweden (
Åre &
Sällen)? No, it's a small slope, but that really isn't the point. The selling point for Hammarby is that
it is right in the middle of the southern suburbs with views of Stockholm from the top. There aren't many "urban" ski slopes in the world, so it is quite a unique experience.

While it is a smaller, contained ski resort... it is still equipped for a complete ski experience: 2 lifts, 4 slopes, a children's area, a snowboard park, a ski school, ski equipment rental and (most importantly) After Ski at their restaurant and bar.
Click here for a map. So far, they are open evenings during the weekdays and daytime on the weekends (closed on Christmas Eve). But it is early days for the season and the opening hours are sure to expand. It is very easy to get to the slope from the
Rival Hotel... subway from Slussen to Gullmarsplan (
green line southbound) and then transfer to
Tvärbanan (street car) in the direction of Sickla. Exit at
Sickla Kaj and from there it is just a 10 minute walk. See you on the slopes!
