For cycling there are both Sälen Bike Park with lift-supported trails and Sälen Trail Park for trail cycling. They have different conditions, so choose according to experience and the day's open trails. Read SkiStars information about Sälen bike Park before choosing a bike, equipment and trail pass.
For hiking, you can start with SkiStars summer map and activity overview. Consider the weather, the length of the route and your group's energy levels. Lifts and other facilities have seasonal opening hours; current times are available in SkiStars opening hours information.
With children or when the weather changes
Experium is an option when you want to alternate days out with swimming or bowling. Plan your visit in advance: opening hours, pre-booking and available activities are shown on Experium's own page. Bowling, shuffleboard and billiards should be booked in advance.
