Alone at the resort...

" It may seem obvious, given that we’re in the land of ice and the entire country is covered in a white winter blanket, but skiing in Iceland remains a little-known attraction among tourists.
There are ski resorts all over the island, but the one I chose is located in the far north, specifically in Siglufordur. After driving for an hour from Akureyri and passing through one of Iceland’s first tunnels, I finally arrived at the ski area, which lies at an elevation of 250 meters and rises to 650 meters."

There are 5 chairlifts providing access to 5 different runs (8 under normal circumstances). It’s not very big, but perfectly sufficient for an active afternoon. We wanted to spend the whole day skiing, but the resort doesn’t open until 2:00 p.m. and closes at 7:00 p.m. Since it gets dark at 4:30 p.m., all the runs are lit by floodlights—so much so that the terrain was actually easier to see at night. For me, it was my first time ever skiing at night, and I loved it. The snow was perfect for cushioning my many falls.

I loved the feeling of being alone at the resort. That Friday afternoon, there were no more than 15 of us sharing the entire ski area.
I loved the view of the ocean inlet and the little coastal village below.
I appreciated the warm welcome from the site manager.
In short, it was an experience I’d gladly repeat!
As for prices, expect to pay 50 euros per person for a 3-hour session, including equipment rental. The ski resort is open from October through mid-May.
