How much does a ski trip to Åre cost?

A ski trip to Åre can vary greatly in price depending on when during the season you travel, what type of accommodation you book, and whether you need to rent equipment. For an adult, a long weekend typically costs around 5,000 SEK, while a full week during high season often exceeds 10,000 SEK.
The biggest expenses are accommodation and lift passes, but food and travel also affect the total cost. The difference between a week in January and a week during the school-holiday period can be several thousand kronor, making the choice of dates an important factor in your budget.

The lift pass is one of the largest fixed expenses for anyone skiing in Åre. A weekly pass for adults costs around 3,300 SEK during high season, while a three-day pass is about 2,000 SEK. Prices are lower for children and youth, which means families often pay significantly less per person.

Ski rental prices vary depending on the length of your stay and the type of equipment you choose. A basic adult package including skis, boots, and poles costs about 850 SEK for three days and between 1,170 and 1,490 SEK for six to eight days. Higher-end equipment is more expensive, while those who already own skis and boots can save a substantial amount.

Accommodation is the single biggest expense of a ski holiday. Through Guestit, you can book lodgings in various price ranges and locations, from smaller apartments to larger cabins near the slopes. Prices depend on standard, season, and location, meaning two trips in different weeks can differ significantly in total cost.

During popular weeks such as Christmas, New Year, and the February holiday period, demand is high and prices rise. Trips in January or April are often more budget-friendly.
Lunch on the mountain typically costs 120–180 SEK per dish, while dinner at a restaurant in the village ranges from 200 to 400 SEK per person. Self-catering can reduce food costs to around 1,000–1,500 SEK for a week per adult, whereas dining out on several evenings can double that amount.

A long weekend with three ski days for one adult may look like this: lift pass 2,000 SEK, ski rental 850 SEK, accommodation booked via Guestit, and food 800–1,500 SEK. Total: usually between 5,000 and 7,000 SEK depending on accommodation choice.

A full week with six to eight ski days includes: lift pass 3,300 SEK, ski rental 1,170–1,490 SEK, accommodation via Guestit, and food 1,500–3,000 SEK. Total: typically between 9,500 and 14,800 SEK per adult. 
Travel costs are added on top of this. Train tickets from Stockholm often cost 700–1,200 SEK round trip, while car travel depends on fuel and potential road fees.
