This tour is conducted by Tromsø Outdoor. No snow? No problem. While waiting for the snow to come we head out for a relaxing sightseeing and hike. We pass by the highest mountains of Kvaløya, pristine beaches, we look for reindeer, eagles and watch nature getting ready for the winter.
General information
The tour is very easy and almost everyone should be able to complete the hike. After about an hour drive with some stops we head to one of the nicest viewpoints in the area - a cliff surrounded by several peaks rising above the ocean.
Our guide will make sure that you learn new facts about the area and will be with you at all times. You do not need to have any mountaineering experience or great stamina to join this easy and interesting tour.
The tour is suitable for persons of all ages from 8 years and upwards.
As the weather can change quickly we recommend that you wear a waterproof jacket and warm trousers.
We provide quality spikes for each participant which we use if the path is slippery.
The tour will be offered only when the current snow conditions do not allow us to conduct our regular winter activities (snowshoe and ski trips). Once there is enough snow but you've already booked a place on this tour we will offer you a place on one of our other activities instead.
