Evening Snowshoe Tour in the Arctic Mountains

General information

This tour is conducted by Målselv Mountain Village. The experience begins at our Welcome Center, where your guide will welcome you and provide a short introduction to the equipment and safety procedures. Once everyone is ready, we set off at a calm and steady pace through snow-covered forests and open mountain terrain.

This tour requires a moderate level of physical fitness. Participants must be comfortable walking in snow for a minimum of one hour, making this experience best suited for guests who enjoy being active outdoors. Along the way, we take a break at a sheltered rest area to enjoy a warm drink while taking in the peaceful Arctic surroundings. This is the perfect moment to pause, breathe, and experience the silence that defines the Arctic winter.

After the break, we make our way back while enjoying the mountain views. In the evening, the
atmosphere becomes even quieter as the Arctic night settles over the landscape. On clear nights, the northern lights may appear, dancing across the sky and adding a touch of magic to the experience. Whether the aurora appears or not, this tour offers a memorable and authentic winter adventure in nature.

Transport from Tromsø to and from the activity is not included.
