Wilderness Polar Night Skiing Experience

This tour is operated by Tromsø Ski Guides.

Experience the Arctic winter night on a guided Nordic skiing adventure in the mountains surrounding Tromsø. Join a private evening tour through snow-covered landscapes, away from the city lights, with the possibility of seeing the Northern Lights if conditions allow.

Together with an experienced guide, you'll explore peaceful forests and gently rolling mountain terrain. Along the way, enjoy views of the surrounding fjords and mountains, look for animal tracks in the snow and experience the tranquillity of the Arctic wilderness.

The tour includes a stop around a bonfire, where you can enjoy a warm drink, take photos and listen to stories before continuing back towards your transport.
