hi all,
does anyone know about Riksgransen ski resort in Sweden?
ive heard its really cool and that the heli-skiing is cheap and its bright till after midnight, so there is late night skiing.
theres only one hotel there and their web site in in sweedish so any help at all would be great.
also i heard that u can take the train from Stockholm, its supposed to be really beautiful.
if youve been there or know a cheap way to get there or stay there (im in dublin, ireland, so i can fly to Stockholm cheap enough)
any help at all,
cheers people!
Pat

My b/f is orgionally from Stockholm, and is fluent. I'll get him to check the web site, ask him what he knows about it, etc. And yes, almost anything is Sweden is beautiful (something about not getting bombed out in two world wars, hah). You could also try calling the resort. Almost the entire country is fluent-enough in English to hold a basic conversation.
