Celebrate a traditional Christmas in Norway. Hafjell is one of the major Norwegian alpine ski resorts with the Torch man as the landmark. Lillehammer region in Christmas time is the perfect venue to relax and enjoy quality time with your family and friends.
Christmas celebration in Norway is rich in traditions, and is dedicated to family and friends, parties and good food.
