Riksgränsen opens for the season in February, at the end of the dark winter. Visitors can then take advantage of all the snow that has fallen over the autumn and winter months for skiing and snowboarding. The small village and the ski lifts are all located in Sweden, but some of the runs also cross over into Norway. Although Riksgränsen is not a particularly large ski resort, the vast treeless slopes on the Riksgränsfjället have made it a hot spot for freeriders as well as pleasure skiers. The highlight is skiing and snowboarding under the midnight sun. In early summer, you can actually go out on the slopes in a T-shirt here. Riksgränsen has quite a few options for activities not involving ski lifts: snowmobile tours, ski touring and cross-country skiing are very popular here, as well as heliskiing.
Note: The openening times are provided by the ski resort Riksgränsen and can vary based on external conditions, day of the week, school holidays and public holidays.
