Description

For a true northern experience, you can't beat the Lyngen Alps. This beautiful Norwegian mountain range is an enormous wonderland of gorgeous scenery and exciting activities. And on this 4 day activities package, we will make sure you truly the kind of experience you will never forget.

To start with, the Lyngen Lodge where you will be staying will provide you with all of the comforts and amenities a great hotel should. However, unlike many hotels, the lodge is located in place where every night during the winter season, you can look up and see the Northern Lights dance!

If that mesmerising natural show was not enough, throughout your trip, we have an array of amazing activities you can enjoy. For the first 2 days, there is a dog sledding tour, where you can lead your own dog sled, and a frozen lakes adventure where you can snowmobile and ice fish.

On the third activity day, we offer several options. There is a wonderful snowshoeing hike on a forested natural trail that offers some truly amazing views of the Lyngen Alps, along with the chance to see a wolverine or a lynx. There is also a cross country skiing tour through various areas including Djupvik, Rotsund or Storslett. And finally, we offer a sea safari. This amazing boat trip will allow you to view the Lyngen Alps' east coast, where you can see enormous ice towers and caves, along with a dolphin or two if you're lucky!

There is so much to do and see in the Lyngen Alps. And we believe on this 4 day winter activity package, you will get to see and do as much as anybody can in this beautiful region. So if you're interested, send a request, and we'll do the rest.

We also offer a 3 day option of this trip as well.

About the guide

Graham

Mountain Guide

I grew up in the north east of England and Scotland until I moved to St.Anton Austria to become both a ski teacher and internationally qualified UIAGM International Mountain Guide, teaching and guiding, skiing, rock and ice climbing and glacier mountaineering.
I set up Piste To Powder Off Piste Skiing in St.Anton Austria which specialises in guided ski adventures with a focus on developing the guests skills in both ski technique and mountain safety. Piste To Powder expanded offering ski adventures to exotic locations around the world from Greenland, Alaska, South America, Russia, Himalayas and Norway. I led these expeditions and loved the combination of wild remote travel and skiing new mountains away from the ski resorts.
The Norwegian program began in 2003 sailing through the fjords and skiing from summit to sea. Amazed by the region of Troms, I bought land and built a lodge to offer guests an all year round base for adventure and comfortable relaxing living in this extraordinary Arctic location. Out of all the many wonderful locations around the world to ski, the Lyngen Alps offered a unique experience found to be second to none.
I'm enthusiastic about mountains and people and driven to deliver a high quality service which will ensure that your visit while at my lodge will be a memorable one.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
