During <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/norwegian\/exotic-easter-in-norway\/\"><b>p\u00e5skeferien<\/b><\/a> (the Easter vacation) as much as 1\/3 of all Norwegians (or so my <b>familie<\/b> told me!) go on a skiing adventure <b>p\u00e5 fjellet<\/b> (in the mountains\/highland). Some stay several days in their <b>hytter<\/b> (cabins), while others just spend some hours enjoying <b>sn\u00f8en og sola<\/b> (the snow and the sun) in each other\u2019s company. <b>P\u00e5skefjellet<\/b> means fun and freedom \u2013 here are a few things to keep in mind in case you want to experience it yourself! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">The better <b>v\u00e6r<\/b> (weather), the more <b>folk<\/b> (people). You want to feel like Arctic explorers on a huge, empty plain? Start the day early \u2013 which is also a good idea if you drive to the ski area and want a nice place to park <b>bilen<\/b> (the car).<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">The higher you go, the stronger the sun gets. Skiing without <b>solbriller<\/b> (sun glasses) can actually make you <b>sn\u00f8blind<\/b> (\u201dsnow blind\u201d), which means that your eyes get scorched and damaged from staring at the sun\u2019s reflection in the snowscape. Ouch. And of course, make sure to put on lots of <b>solkrem<\/b> (sunscreen) \u2013 unless you really do want to look like a lobster\u2026<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Remember to bring <b>vann<\/b> (water) and snacks for the whole company. <b>P\u00e5 h\u00f8yfjellet<\/b> (in the highland) there are usually no caf\u00e9s or restaurants, and skiing makes you a lot more <b>sulten og t\u00f8rst <\/b>(hungry and thirsty) than you imagine when you sit inside planning the trip! \ud83d\ude42<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><b>Sitteunderlag<\/b> (sitting pads) are a must for your breaks. Even if the air around you is hot, <b>sn\u00f8<\/b> is still snow\u2026 If you want to be a real Norwegian, bring a <b>p\u00e5skekrim<\/b> (\u201dEaster\u201d detective novel) and some <b>appelsiner<\/b> (oranges) to share. Enjoy your grilled <b>p\u00f8lser<\/b> (sausages), but please don\u2019t leave your <b>engangsgrill<\/b> (disposable grill) behind you in the wild\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"attachment_2441\" style=\"width: 272px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft post-item__attachment\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2441\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2441\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/norwegian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2018\/03\/IMG_2060-262x350.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"262\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/norwegian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2018\/03\/IMG_2060-262x350.png 262w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/norwegian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2018\/03\/IMG_2060.png 479w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2441\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sunscreen ad for the Easter season.
