Storlien

Storlien is a village and ski resort in the Åre municipality, in Jämtland, Sweden, a kilometer from the Swedish-Norwegian border.

It is a popular resort for cross-country and alpine skiing, mostly by Norwegian tourists. The Swedish royal family has a house in Storlien, where they usually celebrate Easter. Storlien's ski area consists of 9 lifts and 23 slopes. However, despite the name Storlien meaning "the big hill", the fall-height is only 190 meters, and consequently the slopes are quite short, in comparison to nearby Duved and Åre. There are 3 children's areas, and Friday night's evening skiing on a lit slalom slope.

The Storlien station is 600 meters above sea level, from which one can take an overnight train to Göteborg, Stockholm and Malmö during most of the year. The closest airports are Trondheim Airport, Værnes, 70km to the west, across the Norwegian border, and Åre Östersund Airport about 150km to the east. The E14 highway passes though Storlien.

Storlien is mentioned in The Boys From Brazil.
