Rassmus has built his own ski slope – at home on his property outside Nyköping

Rassmus Hagberg has created a personal ski slope at his farm in Råby, Sweden, after years of traveling to northern ski areas.

Rassmus Hagberg, a 36-year-old skiing enthusiast from Kiladalen, Sweden, has turned his passion for skiing into a reality by constructing his own ski slope at his recently acquired farm in Råby. After years of making long drives to snowy regions for skiing, he decided to create a local solution to combat his intense skiing cravings. Over the past three years, Hagberg has developed a ski facility by utilizing his skills and resources, which includes a custom-built slope and a ski lift constructed with the help of friends.

Hagberg's dedication to his project is evident in the work he has put into crafting the slope using a heavy excavation machine and designing a ski lift that helps skiers focus on practicing their tricks and jumps. He expresses immense satisfaction with the facility, stating that it has been a fantastic experience this season. The facility, affectionately named Kila Valley, has become a labor of love for Hagberg, who juggles the responsibilities of running a farm and maintaining a full-time job in an industry while dedicating substantial time to his skiing project.

Despite the challenges of managing both work and his ski facility, Hagberg emphasizes the collaborative effort involved with the help of friends, making the endeavor not only about skiing but also about community and shared passion. As a result, he has successfully transformed his property into a unique skiing venue that caters to both his aspirations and the needs of fellow skiing enthusiasts in the area.
