Problem is I have no idea were to go and all the sites I find are in Norwegian. I'll be flying into Oslo Torp airport near Sandefjord and staying for 4 days. Does anyone know which is the closest resort to go to and how to get there? Once there, what accommodation would you recommend? I keep stumbling accross Rauland but can't find any place to stay there. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers

This is a rather unknown area and I can put the link to the web cam and you can see for your self the snow. I am off to Bjorli this February and im going to be staying tin the Bjorligard Hotel and spending a night in the Ice Lodge that they are building. I went last year and the snow cover was massive, plenty of slopes and some good cross country tracks too. This is the web cam http://www.skiinfo.com/webcams/detail_big....DESTID=ENOBJORL
