HELP: Is it still possible to ski in Norway mid august?? Any locals?

[1990]

Hey, I am currently planing a trip to norway from august 3rd to august 17th.

We wanna start in Oslo and continue with Lillehammer, Bergen and also Folgefonna among other things.

Is it still possible to ski at Folgefonna?

How much is a ticket for a day?

Is there still a skiable park?

If yes: What is currently built?

Thanks for any answers!

Right now both folgefonna and juvass are closed due to little snow.

You should look a bit into it though because ive heard something about juvass opening later in the fall but i cannot confirm this.

I've never been personally, but a Norwegian buddy of mine has. He's actually in Norway right now, and probably skiing too. There's a link for their park, which doesn't look too bad for a summer session. He's from Bergen and tells me this place is a a few hours north of there. Says he usually stays at least one night to make the trip out of the city worthwhile.
