Västerbotten, Sweden
Ingemar Stenmark's home resort
Tärnaby is the home resort of legendary skier Ingemar Stenmark, offering excellent skiing, modern facilities, and beautiful Lapland scenery.
Tärnaby has 20 pistes served by 8 lifts — 11th for pistes of the 15 resorts we track in Sweden. On lifts it ranks 10th of the 15.
The lifts run from 400m at the base to 1000m at the top, a vertical of 600m. Of the 15 resorts we track in Sweden, that is the 7th highest, with the 4th biggest vertical.
The base is below 1,000m, so the lowest runs are the first to suffer in a mild spell; the upper mountain is the safer bet early and late in the season.
The pistes at Tärnaby split 30% beginner, 50% intermediate and 20% advanced, against an average of 33% beginner and 17% advanced across the resorts we track in Sweden.
On those numbers it suits beginners and intermediates.
Over the last ten winters Tärnaby has typically held skiable snow at mid-mountain from around 20 November to 30 May, about 193 days.
March is the best all-round month on the record, with an average base of 116cm, 69cm of new snow and 2.3 bluebird days.
