Children have lots of fun at a ski holiday in Lofsdalen – there are many areas and spaces for them to play. The ski slopes are kid-friendly and it is easy to get used to the lifts. Loffe, Lofsdalen’s little blue bear cub, dances and sings with the kids. After a day outside the activity house awaits with a playland, bowling and restaurant - all in a family friendly setting.
It is no secret that the children have received extra focus in the ski resort. In Snölandet and Loffeliften, ski instructors stand as lift hosts, so that the children can get good tips and advice.
In the large children's area, children play among cones and figures on the slope, ride a ski carousel, meet Lofsdalen's mascot Loffe, ski, do tricks or go on a treasure hunt. The comfortable Lången express chairlift takes the whole family up to both green and blue skiing.
After skiing, the Activity Center awaits with a playground, bowling and good food in the restaurant.
Lofsdalen's own mascot Loffe invites you every week to exciting competitions and activities such as
treasure hunt, cross-country race, après-ski and hanging out on the ski slope.
Finally, the kids can rock out to Loffe's own music on afterskin!

- The world's bluest, mischievous and kindest bear. One freezing night a long time ago, Loffe was born in a bear den next to Hovärken. Then he was brown and furry like all the other bear cubs, but when summer came, his mother realized that he was not at all like his bear siblings. Loffe thought that the best thing there was blueberries. Lots of blueberries. Lots of blueberries! Loffe ate so many blueberries that he ended up turning blue from head to toe. He was also so energized by all the blueberries that he didn't want to crawl into the bear den to sleep when winter came. So while all the other bears sleep, Loffe plays with his very best friends: the children in Lofsdalen.
Taking a ride on the cross-country track is a popular activity in Lofsdalen. Even for the little skiers. To bring the very little ones along, there are mountain sledges and ski carts to rent, but as soon as the children start to be able to ride on their own, there are several easy excursion destinations to choose from.
