An Arctic winter ski expedition

Picture it: pitching your tent while the northern lights dance overhead, settling into your sleeping bag with a hot meal from your own stove, and waking to the sound of coffee brewing in the tent before you continue through the Norwegian wilderness.

We guide you through some of the wildest and most remote areas in Norway. Multi-day ski trips with tent and sleeping bag have a long history here: it used to be the way to truly experience nature, living in it at the coldest time of year. Everything you do matters for your comfort and safety, and we have the expertise to take you far into the mountains and help you master these skills. You’ll learn a lot about yourself and about handling winter above the Arctic Circle. For some, this is the trip that builds the experience for a Greenland crossing or other long expeditions.

Our favourite areas include Svalbard, Finnmark and the mountains along the Norwegian–Swedish border east of Lofoten.

If you’d like to learn more, our guides are ready to take you out there and share what they know. Get in touch with any questions.

Itinerary

We’ll build an itinerary around your experience and fitness. Different areas need different preparation, but plan on at least one preparation day with your guide.
