Beitostølen and Trysil, Norway

What better way to kick off November than by getting cozy and immersed in nature in snow-covered Norway? For adventure-seekers who are after an early start on the fresh, white snow, Beitostølen is one of the best places for vacation in November. Glide down the slopes on skis or by snow-rafting – for an even more unique experience, why not try out air boarding? Norway's blue skies and fresh mountain air are the perfect backdrop to an active vacation. Conveniently tucked in the picturesque Jotunheimen Mountains, Radisson Blu Mountain Resort, Beitostolen will become a tranquil haven to return to after a busy day out in the snow. The Beitostølen Ski Center is just outside the hotel, and, for culture lovers, we recommend visiting the beautiful Chapel of Lights, complete with a beautiful glass mosaic, just 2 kilometers from the hotel.

Trysil is another awe-inspiring mountain destination in Norway. If you're a dreamer, head on a guided stargazing tour of Trysil's starlit sky to truly switch off and admire the millions of shiny diamonds lighting up the sky – and if you're lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of a shooting star! The Radisson Blu Resort, Trysil, is the ultimate mountain retreat, ideal for making the most of Norway's largest ski destination and checking out its 68 slopes and over 100 kilometers of cross-country tracks. The hotel is also perfect for warming up and getting cozy by the fire after a long day of active pursuits.
