The Ski Resort
Grong Skisenter lies in the Indre Namdal in Trøndelag, on the E 6 midway between Trondheim and Mosjøen, and is the largest ski resort in the former Nord-Trøndelag. On the 872-metre Geitfjellet, 15 runs spread across terrain ranging from the 170-metre Barnebakken for the very youngest to the 1,900-metre Sirituvløypa. Four surface lifts serve the slopes. The black-graded Ekspert'n on the Ola lift challenges advanced skiers, while the red Super'n and the wide Familiebakken are ideal for intermediates and families.
The terrain park features a halfpipe, a quarterpipe, rails and a dedicated terrain course — an unusually comprehensive freestyle offering for the region. Grong is also a paradise for ski touring: from the Ola lift, cross-country trails lead across the Geitfjellet and on into the high mountains.
Interesting facts
- Elevated between 225 m and 872 m, the Ski Resort is among the 3 highest elevated Ski Resorts in Middle Norway. The vertical drop from summit to base is 647 m. The average difference in altitude between base and summit of Ski Resorts in Norway is 427 m. Most runs are therefore relatively long.

Activities
A dedicated toboggan run passes by the Ola lift — sleds can be hired right at the lift. The cross-country trails around the Geitfjellet offer varied tours through the high-mountain landscape of the Indre Namdal. In summer, the site becomes a roller-ski track and frisbee golf course.
