In Åre , we celebrate the 6th of June by inviting everyone to test what the summer in the mountains has to offer. There is a possibility to try out a lot of activities for half the cost, for example hill-carting, zorbing, zipline, rafting and biking. Try different brands of bikes at the rental offices and get the lift pass for free when you run a test pass downhill.
The winter season concludes with Freeride, Skutskjutet, Hot Dog and huge après-ski at the square. Meanwhile the summer season runs a sneak opening with free bicycling in the toboggan track.
On Saturday 26 March the popular event Åre High Five by Carlsberg returns to Stjärntorget in the centre of the resort where large quantities of snow have fallen over the past few days. The five decisive disciplines will offer the amateurs the chance of challenging the top Swedish skiing elite in a line-up including names such as Jon Olsson, Kaj Zackrisson, Anna Holmlund and Henrik Windstedt.
Hundreds of skiers and snowboarders, an empty ski hill and afterwards, a tempting après-ski event; on 24 April, the Red Bull Home Run returns to Åre for the second year in a row. And the competition format is simple: everyone starts at the same time, dashes to the equipment and competes to be the first one down the peak.
