Inghams top tip - From Voss, take a day trip to the city of Bergen and embrace the Nordic way of living with lots of museums that delve into the way of life here. Book this locally in resort. 

The area:

The western side of Norway is a very family originated part of the country, ideal for a family skiing trip.

All the extended family will join together to make sweet treats for the festive period. Ideal for tourists as you will often find some of these yummy sweet treats in the resorts Christmas markets. A great local favourite breakfast or sweet to try are the variety of sweet bread buns (known as School Bread).

Make the most of your stay in Norway and spend some time in the many saunas, a favourite past-time of the Nordic population. Most accommodation and all spas will have saunas on offer, the ideal way to relax after spending the day on the slopes. 

The skiing:

Voss and Myrkdalen are the larger of the Norway resorts and offer the most out of the spaces here, with off-piste and night-skiing options. 

If you are travelling as a family with younger children, then Myrkdalen is ideal - with a dedicated children's area and children's park to cater for them, plus an excellent ski-school with English speaking instructors.
