Snowmobile in Åre
Follow our snowmobile guide along small narrow stairs, out to the nature of Åre. When the opportunity arises, we let loose on untouched snowmobile trails and experience the snowmobiles’ fine driving characteristics. For winter 2024, you can choose between driving an electric scooter or a regular traditional snowmobile. We have several different snowmobile tours, shorter tours go with the electric scooter and are more adapted for those who want to enjoy nature and silence. For those who want to burn a little more or drive further out into the mountains and have lunch outdoors, the traditional snowmobile is still the best option.
We accept international driving licences.

FAQs about snowmobiles in Årefjällen
Where do we drive snowmobiles?
Common to all snowmobile tours is that we start in Åre Björnen at our snowmobile base. The guide for the day will then determine the best route according to the conditions of the day. Our goal is always to give you as guests the best possible tour. The most common is that we stay around the back of Åre skutan and if the conditions are good try to get up over the tree line.
Usually we start away towards Fröågruva because if conditions allow us to go up the mountain, otherwise turn down towards the beautiful mountain lakes Hissjön and Järptjärn.
For special requests, please book the VIP tour (private group). Then you can choose the route according to your wishes and conditions.
What kind of clothes do you have?
You can really have anything (almost). The basic rule is to think the same as when skiing, but with us you get an overall. We lend snowmobile overalls, helmets and boots to groups up to 30 people. For longer trips, it can be good to have underwear and something warmer between layers. A pair of comfortable wool socks is also never wrong.
