For the kids: HafjellParken is building a new park for the youngest park riders, and it will be ready for the season opening. The park will contain a 100m lift with two different rail lines with different difficulty. The parks location is at Mosetertoppen; the best location in Hafjell. Where the riders want to be: Hafjell want to make HafjellParken a even better place to be. They are building a new house where you can take some time off from riding in Hafjells best view. Music and wireless Internet access is there, so you can easily check your facebook status and upload your photos from your phone:) Backyard and the Railpark: Last year's opening of Backyard was a success form day one. Hafjell are now putting in more lifts and have mores shaping hours to spend there to keep up with the massive use of the park. Hafjell are also upgrading our rails and buying a lot of new ones. New snow makers is put up in the rail park, so They are aiming for a early start.
