There have been many trips and before it was possible to put the excavator in the ground. But now the Norwegian ski star's project in Åre has begun. Half a billion is invested in what will become an area of ​​125 apartments.

- We have been working for a long time to get building permits and financing, but it is important to get started not least during these times, says Björn Dählie.

It is in the area just west of the National Arena at the so-called Kallströms laid that construction has now begun.

Now that this project is starting to become a reality, Björn Dählie says he will not close the door for more projects in Åre.
