SkiStar has been presented with the industry organisation SLAO's inaugural Sustainability Award in recognition of its ground-breaking pilot project, which aims to establish a fossil-free ski resort in Hammarbybacken.
Preparations for the 2024/25 winter season are well underway at SkiStar’s destinations in Sweden and Norway. SkiStar saw a significant increase in British skiers across SkiStar’s resorts last winter, and the guests enjoyed reliable skiing conditions throughout the season. With the British skiers in mind, SkiStar introduce several exciting updates this coming season.
Comments from the CEO Stefan Sjöstrand: “It is pleasing to see that this year’s increased volume of guests comes from international gusts, who not only increase or sales but also makes us grow across all weeks.”
As winter transitions to spring, SkiStar, the leading Scandinavian ski resort operator, concludes an extraordinary ski season characterized by remarkable achievements and significant growth. Over the past six months, the five Scandinavian ski resorts have served as a haven for numerous families and skiing aficionados.
Comments from the CEO Stefan Sjöstrand:“It is extremely gratifying that we can present our best half-year result in the company´s history, thanks to the record number of skiing visitors and a particularly strong interest from foreign guests.”
SkiStar, the leading holiday organiser for Scandinavia, is taking a significant step in its transition to a fossil-free operation by testing complete electrification of a ski resort. The unique pilot project is being conducted at SkiStar's ski resort in Stockholm, Hammarbybacken. This marks a crucial milestone for the company towards its sustainability goal for 2030.
Comments from the CEO Stefan Sjöstrand: “The early start of the winter season has led to a high demand from our guests, and the bookings are 9 percent higher than previous year, meaning that more than 80 percent of the season’s estimated accommodation sales are already booked.”
