Urban experiences meets raw Arctic nature
Tromsø
Wilderness Polar Night Skiing Experience
Let’s go on a backcountry wilderness skiing adventure together in the polar night, right after the sun has set. We will enjoy the beautiful, wild nature and the snow that glitters and feels soft beneath our skis. Perhaps we'll see the Northern Lights? Together we experience Tromsø’s untamed nature and the Arctic light.
