Tromso Snowshoeing - Valley, Fjord Views, Wildlife, Meal & Pickup
Description
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 the autumn months (October and November), you'll get to enjoy the colourful countryside before it is covered with a thick layer of snow. When there is not much snow, the tour is a hiking tour without snowshoes.

My husband and I were on our honeymoon and I couldn’t be more happy that we chose to do this. It was not only a workout too but the views and guide made it all so incredible. It was personalized to the guide and Ganni couldn’t have chosen a better route and view. Overall would 100% recommend to everyone visiting!
Our guide Aneta not only guided us wonderfully through the snow landscape, but also told us more about the area. We had top weather and wind and could fully enjoy the tour. Snowshoeing does not require any special prior experience. The tour was pleasant to run and requires an average fitness level. It was not favourable, but is in line with Norwegian conditions. We can recommend the tour.
We had such an amazing experience, thank you! The snow covered mountains were breathtaking to walk amongst and the sledging was fun! Our guide tailored the route to the groups abilities and we went much further and higher than expected. Lunch and coffee was perfect too whilst enjoying the stunning views. Thank you very much Aneta, Emma.
Book it. Chances are, if you’re in Tromso, you already like nature - this was such a great way to see the surrounding area, some awesome views and also some of the local wildlife - raindeer, ptarmigans. Would say it’s 100% worth the money - try and get a sunny day if you can (Bring sun cream). Takes 3-4 hours in total.
