Snowshoe Like a Local in Tromsø

This tour is operated by Arctic Cruise in Norway.

Norwegians love spending time outdoors, and snowshoeing is one of the most authentic ways to experience winter in Northern Norway.

Join an experienced local guide for a fun and personal adventure through Tromsø’s snow-covered landscapes. Travel comfortably in a premium electric vehicle before heading into peaceful forests, deep snow and beautiful Arctic scenery.

No previous snowshoeing experience is required. The route is adapted to the group’s fitness level, preferences and the conditions on the day. Choose an easy walk across flatter terrain or climb a small hill for wider views of the mountains and surrounding wilderness.

Walk through the snow, breathe the fresh Arctic air and discover the simple pleasures of Norwegian outdoor life. The small group gives you personal attention from the guide and plenty of time to enjoy the landscape, play in the snow and take photographs.

During the tour, you will be served coffee, tea or hot chocolate with traditional Norwegian lefse or Kvikk Lunsj chocolate.

After the experience, you will receive a personalised digital artwork inspired by your Arctic adventure and the scenery of Northern Norway.
