The mountain sports festival is fast approaching and it's time to be happy! Whether you are new to the festival or have attended before, there are many things happening these days in Sogn. That's why we've put together some activities and events that we think you must take with you to Fjellsportfestivalen 2020!
1. RACKS OPEN
On Saturday during the festival, this year's Mr. & Mrs. RAKKAR is finally crowned. A skiing competition in the middle of Rindabotn that offers wild tricks, airy glides, high speed and lots of excitement! And guaranteed to end up banging and falling! Whether you're going to join in yourself or sit comfortably and safely to enjoy the fun, we promise a real show!
Location: Rindabotn Sogndal Ski Centre
When: Saturday 11:00
SGN skis RAKKAR
The inspiration for the Rakkar ski actually comes from the gunnerøns in Rindabotn in the Sogndal ski centre. We saw the need for a playful and stable ski that could give all skiers a great day. The result was Rakkar. The ski that works for everything - Rakkar Open too of course.
2. AFTER SKI
The perfect place to brag about how deep snow you've driven or how big cliffs you've jumped is of course après-ski in the company of good friends with a cold lager in hand. Last year's success with après ski at Dalalåven will of course be repeated - we're looking forward to it!
Place: Dalalåven
When: Friday and Saturday 3:30 p.m
3. SKI MO WITH SGN
We have a demo stand throughout the festival. Here you can test our entire lineup and find your new favorite ski. The stand is staffed by our experts and you will get good help in finding skis that suit you and your use.
Location: Rindabotn Sogndal Ski Centre
When: Thursday, Friday and Saturday 10:00 - 16:00
Are you looking for new top touring skis, but don't quite know how to choose? Length, weight and middle width are some of the characteristics you have to decide on. We have written an article where we have collected our best tips on what you should think about before buying your next pair!
4. SECOND-HAND MARKET
It's better that someone uses your old skis than that they sit gathering dust in the shed. Or perhaps you are looking for something yourself? On the second-hand market, there is room to both buy and sell used. Good for the environment and your wallet!
Location: The hotel
When: Thursday 16:00 - 19:00
5. JOIN A CELEBRITY TOUR IN THE FOREST
Do you dream of pristine snow in the infamous Hodlekveskogen, but don't quite know where to find it? Join one of our super famous locals on a trip and experience the forest at its best.
Location: The SGN stand in Rindabotn Sogndal Ski Centre
When: Friday at 1:00 p.m
6. JOIN BRE AND FJELL ON THE GUIDED TOUR
Our partner Bre og Fjell is responsible for the tour selection at the Mountain Sports Festival. With skilled guides, you can take part in short and long trips around the region. How about a trip from mountain to fjord in Fjærland, loose snow hunting in Sogndalsdalen or a fantastic descent from Keipen in Balestrand?
7. PARTY WITH DJ DAN
What more can one say? DJ Dan puts the finishing touches and is the perfect end to a great festival day. DJ Dan brings all the tricks from Stavkroa to Soho and we can guarantee a good atmosphere.
Location: The hotel
When: Friday evening 00:00
