Recommended list of what to bring:
Clothing: It’s an active lesson so don't dress too warm, but bring an extra layer for when standing still! It's best to have clothing that dries up quickly, so avoid cotton if possible! Wool and polyester (often seen in sport specific clothing) are best. Dressing in many layers is recommended over having one thick layer. This provides better insulation and it's easier to take off one layer when you're too warm.
Ski equipment: In the ski rental personal will help you to find right skis, poles and boots for classic cross-country skiing. There are ski rental in Hafjell ski resort (bottom), Nordseter and Gaiastova (Hafjeltoppen).

Why X - country skiing
Cross-country skiing is a very pleasant way to enjoy the great outdoors on a sunny winter’s day and see the sights with friends - all while getting a good workout. When you cross-country ski, you’re training your body to move in a way that it was designed to move. You’re teaching it to improve the process that makes you more capable in daily movements. Nordic skiing combines both a lower body and upper body workout, while simultaneously working both the “pulling” and “pushing” muscles of each region. Norway is a best place in the world to start skiing. Welcome!!!
