About us

From madness to success

It all started 1965 when depopulation affected the Idre area due to a declining job market. A foundation was established and a ski resort was planned on the mountain of Gränjesvålen. The project was soon known as the "communal madness" among the locals. But 50 years on, what started as a crazy idea turned out to be a success story.

From the opening 1968 until today Idre Fjäll has grown to be one of the most popular ski resorts in Sweden, winning several awards such as "Ski resort of the year" in 2016/2017.
