860 meters in altitude in seven minutes: The Åre cable car (Kabinbanan) makes Åreskutan the most easily accessible high mountain in Sweden. The mountain station is at an altitude of 1274 meters, the valley station is located just above the central square Åre torg at 421 meters above sea level. From the mountain station and from the nearby summit at an altitude of 1,420 meters you have a view that stretches for kilometers over the mountains of Jämtland. The cable car was built as part of the Åre project, where the Swedish government decided in 1972 to allocate money to create a ski area in Årefjällen where “normal” people could also afford to ski. The Kabinbana was opened in 1976. Each cabin can accommodate 75 people. The train usually runs every 20 minutes. Dogs are welcome in one of the mountain huts, but four-legged friends must generally be kept on a leash on the mountain.

The central square of the town of 3,000 inhabitants is Åre torg. It is surrounded by hotels, restaurants, discos and shops. This is where locals and hordes of holidaymakers come together to enjoy the attractions of this ski resort, one of Sweden's oldest and most important.

With the cable car you can quickly get from the place to over 1,200 meters. From here, many mountain bike trails lead into the valley and you can continue hiking to the summit of Åreskutan.
