Info

Description

Walk through the breathtaking winter scenery of the winter landscape.

Leave the city behind and submerge into a winter wonderland with our guided excursion through the wilderness forest of Malangen. An easy and peaceful way to explore the snowy hills of Norway, even for first timers. Whether you're wandering through quiet pine forests, crossing frozen lakes, or hiking up to panoramic viewpoints, snowshoes let you go where no road reaches.

With this unique experience, you will meet our most emblematic animals, the reindeer. Hidden in the hills of Malangen, they graze peacefully in our reindeer yard. Feed them by hand, and learn about their significance to the region. For lunch, we’ll gather in a traditional lavvu, a Sami tent, where you’ll enjoy a warm and hearty Sami meal, bidos that embodies the flavours and history of the North.

This full-inclusive tour offers an authentic taste of Arctic traditions and culture, combined with exhilarating outdoor experiences, making it an unforgettable journey into the heart of Sami heritage and Arctic beauty.
