The resort is just two and a half hours' drive from Oslo, perched above the UNESCO-nominated town of Rjukan in the valley below. This is a place steeped in history: Rjukan's heavy water plant was the target of the famous WWII sabotage mission immortalised in The Heroes of Telemark, and the surrounding mountains have been ski country since long before the Alps had their first chairlift. The atmosphere at Gausta is distinctly Scandinavian - calm, friendly, and connected to the outdoors in a way that feels completely different from a European Alpine resort.
The ski area covers around 32km of marked pistes across three peaks - Fjellheisen, Skipsfjell, and Vatnedalheisen - served by 12 lifts including two high-speed quads. With 42 runs, the terrain is notably varied: 20 green runs for beginners, alongside 12 advanced reds and 6 expert blacks, giving the mountain a split personality that works for families and experienced skiers alike. But the headline act is Gaustatoppen itself. Inside the mountain, the Gaustabanen funicular railway takes you and your skis to the 1,883m summit in 15 minutes - from where you can see one-sixth of Norway on a clear day - and then ski an extraordinary off-piste descent back down. The season runs from late November through to mid-April, and the high-altitude plateau location makes Gausta one of Norway's most snow-reliable resorts.
Beyond the downhill skiing, Gausta has 85km of groomed cross-country trails, world-famous ice climbing on Rjukan's frozen waterfalls, floating saunas on Lake Kvitåvatn with views of Gaustatoppen, dog sledding, snowshoeing, and some of the most atmospheric night skiing you'll find anywhere. The dining ranges from the Gaustablikk Fjellresort's fine-dining brasserie (with a wine cellar of over 1,000 bottles) to barbecue grill huts on the mountain where you cook your own food over an open fire. It's a ski holiday that feels like a genuine Norwegian mountain adventure.

4.9/5Je réserve habituellement moi-même les vols, les transferts, l'hôtel, la location du matériel de ski et les forfaits ski, mais cette année j'ai utilisé WeSki pour un séjour à Morzine. C'était tellement plus simple. Tout a parfaitement fonctionné - les transferts sont arrivés à l'heure et il y avait beaucoup de retours d'information tout au long du processus, ce qui vous donne confiance que les vacances se dérouleront sans problème.
Un service vraiment utile qui est beaucoup plus facile à utiliser que d'autres sites "tout compris". Il comble parfaitement le fossé entre une agence de voyage et la réservation du séjour par vous-même en ligne. J'utiliserai WeSki chaque fois que j'irai au ski à partir de maintenant.
Nous avons réservé un séjour au ski de dernière minute à Morzine via WeSki. Nous avions envisagé de réserver le séjour nous-mêmes, mais nous n'avons pas pu trouver un prix aussi avantageux que celui proposé par WeSki. L'entreprise a été super et nous n'avons rencontré aucun problème du début à la fin. Je passerai certainement de nouveau par eux pour réserver un autre week-end au ski.
Une expérience fluide du début à la fin. Je passais des heures à essayer d'organiser un week-end et j'ai réussi à le faire avec WeSki en quelques minutes et pour le même prix que si je l'avais réservé moi-même. Le vol, le transfert et l'hébergement étaient tous comme prévu et nous n'avons rencontré aucun problème.
