Urban experiences meet raw Arctic nature
Aurora Snowshoe Nightwalk
Follow GuideGunnar to Kvaløya or Ringvassøya islands for a snowshoe hike. The location of the hike depends on where the best weather and the least wind is found.
About us
This tour is operated by GuideGunnar.
I have three snowshoeing locations available, and you will experience one of them, depending on where the best weather is found:
• 55 km west of the city we will climb a hill with an excellent view of the local islands and ocean from Ørnfløya mountain.
• 25 km west of the city we will take an easy hike up on a hill with a lovely view over two fjords and the surrounding mountains.
• 45 km north of the city we will do a hike from my own backyard and up to the mountains. From there, we will see a lovely view over the sea and all the way to the Lyngen Alps, as long as the weather is in our favour.
I will equip you with a thermo suit and good boots for a walk in the snow on snowshoes. Depending on the weather you`ll get treated with a tasty pastry and hot drinks.
If we`re lucky with the weather and Aurora activity, you`ll see the performance of Lady Aurora too.
