Overview

A wonderful way to explore the Arctic landscape of Northern Norway! 

Snowshoeing is a great means to immerse yourself in our wild nature and to traverse even the snowiest areas.

The scenic drive along the fjord makes a perfect beginning of the tour. At the destination our guide leads you to one of the summits on Kvaløya island or on the mainland. Relish the feeling of crunching over, rather than sinking into, the pristine snow. Great views over majestic mountains and fjords are the reward for the effort - we hike around 400 meters elevation to reach the top. Therefore the trip requires you to be used to physical activity, but previous snowshoeing experience is not required.

Wearing proper winter boots and warm clothes is a must on this tour. 

We take good time for breaks to take photos, learn about the local nature and culture, and savor a hot drink and snack on route.

Activity itinerary

The tour starts with a scenic 40-minute road trip around the fjords and mountain passes. On arrival, we learn how to use the snowshoes before we start our adventure! We hike to one of the smaller summits with majestic views over the surrounding mountains and fjords (if, of course, the weather allows!). During the hike we stop a few times for rests, photos and to share our knowledge about our region and the Arctic environment. At the summit we take a longer break to enjoy a hot drink and try some delicious lefse – a local sweet snack. We hike in snowy mountain terrain towards a summit located on approx. 400 m so a moderate level of fitness and health is required. The tour is not suitable for guests with a heart condition or limited physical abilities.
