Tanndalen

What Tanndalen does

Tänndalen is a Swedish alpine and mountain destination located in the Funäsfjällen region, operated by Tänndalens Fjällanlæggning AB (publ.) and owned by Velit Activities AB following its 2010 acquisition by Grönklittsgruppen. The resort offers 54 alpine ski slopes served by 14 lifts, 300 km of cross-country ski trails, 450 km of hiking trails and 610 km of snowmobile routes, alongside two main valley stations at Tänndalen and Hamra. Founded in 1932, the destination has expanded into a four-season resort with the addition of Tänndalen Fjällcykelpark, hiking weekends, the Fjällifrån program and other summer activities alongside the core winter offering.

The commercial offering is built around an integrated on-site ecosystem that includes Ski Lodge Premium and Ski Lodge Tänndalen for accommodation, eight restaurants, eight sports shops and equipment rental, plus activity services for alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and mountain biking. Revenue is generated through multi-channel leisure spending - lift passes (day to multi-day), accommodation stays, equipment rental, F&B, retail and packaged experiences such as family sports holidays and mountain running events - with pricing tiers ranging from SEK 495 day passes to multi-thousand kronor holiday packages.

Customer acquisition is consumer-direct and brand-led, reinforced by recurring industry recognition including Sweden's Best Ski Resort in 2023, 2024 and 2025, SLAO Ski Resort of the Year 2025 and Scandinavia's Best Ski Resort in 2018 and 2019, and by a co-marketing partnership with CUPRA. Distribution is widened through the broader Funäsfjällen destination collaboration, while operational scale remains modest at 51-100 employees with no public revenue disclosure.

Direct peers

• Ramundberget: Boutique-style ski destination within the Funäsfjällen network (Funäsdalsberget, Kappruet, Tänndalsvallen, Tännäskröket, Ramundberget). Comparable as a co-marketed member of the Funäsfjällen collective with shared awards and trail/lift access.
• SkiStar AB: Largest ski resort operator in Scandinavia, publicly listed, operating destination resorts in Sälen, Åre, Vemdalen, Hammarbybacken (Sweden), Trysil (Norway), and Hemsedal (Norway). Directly comparable as a multi-vertical alpine operator with accommodation, lift passes, equipment rental, and ski school.
• Idre Fjäll: Swedish family-oriented ski resort in Dalarna with accommodation, ski school, lift passes, and year-round activities. Comparable integrated destination model and core family/ski school positioning targeting the Swedish domestic market.
• Funäsdalsberget: Neighboring Funäsfjällen ski area sharing awards with Tänndalen and operating under the same regional trail/lift network. Directly comparable given shared cross-country trail system, lift pass reciprocity, and overlapping customer base.
• Trysil (via SkiStar): Norway's largest ski resort and Scandinavia's most-visited, sharing the Funäsfjällen/Nordic competitive set. Comparable as a destination ski resort with extensive lift network, accommodation, and summer activities — the most cited direct competitor for Tänndalen (ranked just behind in Nordic Bench 2018).

Broad incumbents

• Åre (via SkiStar): Sweden's most internationally recognized ski destination and host of World Cup events. Comparable on premium alpine positioning, accommodation mix, and après-ski/F&B offerings, but at substantially larger scale and brand recognition.
• Hemsedal (via SkiStar): Major Norwegian alpine destination with extensive vertical, accommodation, and après-ski — rated alongside Trysil as Scandinavia's premier ski resorts. Comparable to Tänndalen on the alpine experience curve but operates at materially larger scale under SkiStar.
• Sälen (via SkiStar): Sweden's largest ski region by domestic visitor volume (Sälen–Dalarna cluster of SkiStar resorts). Comparable destination ski business with lodging, ski school, and lift operations, but materially larger scale and broader market reach.

Regional players

• Geilo (via SkiStar / Destinasjon Geilo): Norwegian family-friendly ski destination with cross-country and alpine offerings. Comparable as a Nordic destination resort with diversified activities, but located in Norway and primarily serving a different geographic catchment than Tänndalen.
• Riksgränsen: Northernmost Swedish ski resort with unique midnight sun skiing and strong backcountry/off-piste positioning. Comparable on the freeride/off-piste niche (overlaps with Hamra Syd) but operates in a different region (Swedish Lapland) and does not compete directly for Funäsfjällen demand.
