Snowshoe trip with a campfire in Tromso

Summary

See beautiful arctic Tromsø from a different perspective and hear about the ways of living of local people. When you think the time cannot be any better, speed down the hill on toboggan and find yourself playing in the snow like a child again. While taking a break from playing in the snow you can get warm by the campfire prepared by our guide (you are welcome to help!) and listen to stories about Tromsø, northern lights, Arctic nature, local history and everyday life in our city. We welcome everyone, also families with children, who would like to try snowshoeing (following your guide through the night landscape), tobogganing and relaxing by a campfire – no prior experience and preparations are needed. We provide all sports equipment and your guide is with you at all times.
