Voss Gondol

The new cable car in Voss opened in July 2019, and takes you from the railway station up to Hangurstoppen (820 metres). It is the biggest and most modern cable car in Northern Europe, and it is open all year. At the top, you will find Hangurstoppen Restaurant and panoramic views of the mountains around Voss, and a fantastic area for activities and recreation. In summer, it’s a great place for walking, biking and paragliding. In winter, the cable car takes you straight up to Voss Resort ski centre.

Winter and skiing

Voss is one of the skiing destinations in Norway that is most dependable for snow. You can have fun at two different ski centres – Voss Resort and Myrkdalen – which both have lots of trails and freestyle areas for all skill levels. Voss Resort’s welcome centre is in Bavallen, around five kilometres from the centre of Voss. You can also take Voss Gondol cable car right up to the ski centre. Myrkdalen is a short 25-km drive from the centre of Voss.

People who enjoy cross-country skiing should head to Voss ski and tour centre in winter. Voss has lots of great areas for mountain skiing and summit trips.
