Let’s plan your arctic adventure. This is a tailor made tour for active people where the main idea is to experience the local nature like the local residents. We will hike up to the mountains with snowshoes or skies, and we will carry our equipments with expedition pulks. We sleep in a tent, a heated tipi tent or hammocks, depending on the conditions and your preference. The route is planned according to your wishes and fitness level and taking the weather conditions into account. We can include in our trip icefishing, bird hunting and/or hiking to the peak of the mountains.
