Take a walk on the wild side of Tromsø on this small-group outdoor hiking tour and explore the Arctic nature on foot. You'll be taken to the countryside of Tromsø in the middle of beautiful mountains, fjords and valleys, where you and your group will snowshoe up a small mountain or along a valley with a guide. On the tour we will be using snowshoes, which makes it easier and a lot of fun to walk on the snow.

In autumn months and late spring when there is not much snow, the tour is a hiking tour without snowshoes.

    We had a fantastic day in the snowy mountains with our wonderful guide Max. He made sure to guide us to the best location given the time of year, weather and type of snow. Our riverside picnic was delicious and fun and his professional photos were terrific!

    Snowshoeing was really great even though it was more tiring than expected. Isaac & Marcin were amazing and were super patient with how many photos I wanted. We moved at a good pace and were able to get to a great vantage point. The food was tasty as well. Definitely worth trying at least once!

  • Scenery beautiful, guide unprepared

    Lovely day out beautiful scenery. Guide did not do a lot of guiding. There was no backup equipment so some people didn't have shoes or poles that worked which at this price point is wild. There were a lot of "screw you" breaks for the slowest hikers. Guide elected not to pack water saying the thermos was heavy. Asked everyone if they had water. They said yes but also half of the people didn't have backpacks? So I doubt it. Also the girl in the back fell down three times. Guide did not notice because she was already 100 m ahead. I turned around and helped her up. Guide was very personable. Just not that safe.

  • A great day snowshoeing!

    We had a wonderful time on our snowshoeing experience! Our guides, Henrik and Javier, did a great job picking a stunning and safe location for the snowshoeing. Once out on the walk, Henrik was a fantastic guide and took lovely photos of us and the surrounding scenery. We loved our experience!
