Riksgränsen is by far the best resort in Sweden for free riding, both on skis and snowboard. I would say that the resort profile on this page is severely wrong when stating that the mountain wouldn't appeal to an expert skier. Sure there 'aint much steep groomers but the inbounds off-piste terrain on the front side of the mountain is sick, steep and littered with cliffs. The backside is more mellow with longer and more open runs. There is also seriuos hike-to terrain on Nordalsfjäll, the venue of the Scandinavian Free skiing Championships, with steep (up to 55 degrees,long runs and cliffs up to 60 feet. Riksgränsen is also one of the resorts, in Sweden, that receives the most snow. [Editors note: Thank you for your comments. I have now altered the text in the notes to provide a more honest profile.]
