A better way to ski?!

We know where to find the most spectacular sites for skiing, places of magnificent nature -a beautiful harmony of sea and mountains.

Every year in March/April we are ready to take you and your friends for a different kind of skiing -in surroundings described in the alpine world as "heavenly experiences".

The boat is used as base camp, you eat and sleep on board. We put you ashore where you want to ski -perhaps in Lyngen/Ullsfjord, or wherever you might wish -from Lofoten to Finnmark, with peaks up to 1500 meter.

The vessel has sleeping facilities for up to 10 passengers, but we find 8-9 to be an ideal maximum number.

Skiing can easily be combined with hiking on foot as winter wears off in the lowest parts. Kombined skiing and fishing trips are also popular..

Some appreciate a swim in the sea as an ending to the trip.. Experiences are found in the contrasts, and the only limitation is you imagination.

 

The trips last for a minimum of four days, in that case to the Lyngen/Ullsfjord area.

Adventure trips can be arranged to the same areas during summer (july), in that case in combination with other activities.
