We invite you to discover a stunning natural paradise in the remote and magical Uloya Island in Norway. Join us for a unique week during the summer and enjoy great hikes, amazing rock climbing, and sea fishing in this very special destination, located at the northern end of the Lyngen Fjord, north of the Arctic Circle.
During the endless, long days of summer, Uløya is a peaceful haven of untouched nature, green birch forests and exceptional wildlife. After months of white landscape, in summer snow disappears in Uloya, revealing meandering rivers, green meadows, turquoise lakes and enchanting waterfalls, a perfect setting for great adventures, and a complete contrast to the harsh and snowy landscape of the winter months.
This 7-day stay in the Arctic gives you a chance to try a bit of every activity. Our multi-activity program includes wonderful day hikes -or with overnight camping- amazing sea fishing and rock climbing for all levels. We invite you to experience wild and untouched nature, surrounded by spectacular views, and unique solitude and tranquility in this beautiful island in northern Norway.
During this week, you will be staying at our comfy, warm and fully equipped apartments at the Lyngen Outdoor Center, with breathtaking views. We offer stays for groups of 3 to 6 people.
Throughout your stay, our team of guides will help you get the most out from this experience, taking you to the most amazing hikes and climbs in this area. They are all experienced IFMGA- certified, with excellent local knowledge, for whom experiencing the outdoors is a way of life. Our chief guide is Pawel.
Uløya is a truly extraordinary place. This is the Arctic, where you can really feel like you are at the edge of the world! It is right here that famous peaks like Uløytinden (1114m), Kjelvagtinden (1104m) and Blåtinden (1142m) rise straight from the sea, making for wonderful hiking routes. It is right here where you find stunning crystal-clear lakes across the landscape, and where beautiful waterfalls drop down many metres from high, rocky outcrops.
During these days, you will enjoy unforgettable hikes, discovering beautiful rivers and streams, in the middle of green meadows, even on the shortest walks. You will also find herds of reindeer and elk here! You will be amazed by the magical and unique scenic landscape and wildlife of Uloya and the Lyngen Fjord.
In Uloya you will also have the opportunity to enjoy great rock climbing experiences. Completely virgin rock walls are the perfect spot for unique climbs in the island. Uløya boasts fantastic walls in 3 picturesque valleys. Above Isvanett, you will find a great rock wall, offering challenging and interesting dry-tooling opportunities with an exciting finale on ice. Below the lakes there are many smaller areas waiting to be discovered and explored!
Lyngen is also famous for its great fishing grounds. Many islands and inlets make for the perfect conditions for fishing in perfect solitude, often with the whole fjord to just yourself. This area is rich in catfish, cod and the huge halibut. We will take you to cross the Lyngen Fjord by boat, to catch a great halibu for your evening dinner! You will experience a true adventure in a wild location.
The area surrounding Uløya provides any angler with amazing challenges, whether your goal is sea turbot, halibut, cod, coley or catfish! The sea currents deliver an excellent fishing experience and big fish. Our Rotsund Seafishing fishing camp belongs to the renowned Dintur network, which guarantees the highest levels and safety standards.
Our fleet of modern aluminum boats offer a safe and comfortablese fishing experience. In order to make the most out of your fishing trip, we have our own floating bridge and a large pier reaching 50m into the sea, with a fish skinning room.
Does it all sound like a magical fairy tale land? Well, it is! Just send us a request, come to the Arctic and discover it by yourself! We would love to guide you on this multi-activitiy week in Uloya.

Uloya is a trip of a lifetime. You find surreal beauty, natural elements at their chore where sea, mountains and skies confound, and shared passion from the hosts. Our guide Pavel was super professional and friendly. Artur, the main host loves to share his passion for nature, sport and good food. Explore Share was top class as they integrated our demand for an outdoor expedition very well and drafted out this incredible option very quickly. Easy access for follow up made us feel just good. Go for it.

We had a wonderful trip and were spoiled by all people over there, Artur was a great organizer and treated us like friends, Marcin was a perfect guide and always helpful and friendly, Pawel was the perfect cook who spoiled us with delicious food, Mike drove us everywhere and gave us always a save feeling, and also the other helping hands were all friendly and lovely. We hast a great time. Also the house was perfect for us and very nicely designed. The side program very good and also there the guides and staff friendly. Ding sledge touring was effectively too short for the price, but it was nevertheless beautiful. Snowscooters as well and the day on the water by boat a perfect break! So, all in whole a perfect holiday thanks to the professional and friendly staff!

Sublime experience ! Although the beauty had been well telegraphed by my predecessor friends, I was still astonished by the beauty of the pristine landscape and nature. Facing a slope covered in snow while being surrounded by fjords is the best combination of colors and drasticity at the same time. The local team headed by Artur is exceptionally efficient, always coordinated night and day, and very competent. The fact that Artur lives on site is particularly helpful. A couple of notes to future visitors: (1) always go where Artur tells you (he knows where the good spots, finessed based on the local conditions), and (2) go with the boat and dingy, and start the ascent from the beach, at least once on your stay. Our guide David Pellissier from Aosta was a great resource and companion: very safe, straight-shooter, and always tuned to the group's wishes and pace.
