“It’s like a very slippery, icy pist, but it’s super fun and once you have tried two or three runs, it feels more and more natural. I think i´m going to take at least 10 or 20 more and hopefully i will feel a little at home again, but it’s fantastic to be in the middle of Copenhagen and being able to ski.”

We also have a restaurant, a climbing wall, the world’s highest climbing wall, a running path alongside the hill and a hiking path. We have after ski/ski school.
