Itinerary

This holiday can be tailored to suit you with additional nights or combined with a stay in the city of Tromsø.Located on the stunning Lyngen Fjord with spectacular views over the dramatic mountains of the Lyngen Alps, the Lodge provides an ideal base for exploring  northern Norway's incredible natural landscapes.

Day one 

You’ll be met at Tromsø Airport or the city centre by your hosts and transferred to the remote little spot near to the Lyngen Alps – a memorable journey of just over two hours. You’ll settle into the lodge and have time to relax in the outdoor hot tub and sauna before sitting down to dinner in the evening. Enjoy a delicious home-cooked meal followed by your first chance to spot the Northern Lights in this dark skied region. 

Day two

After a blissful night’s sleep, today you’ll explore the mountains around the Lodge by snow shoe. Your guide will take you on a trail through the forests looking out for wildlife on the way before stopping in a clearing for a lunch cooked in a tippi tent on an open fire. Return to the Lodge full of energy and Arctic inspiration before another evening of sky gazing and contemplation. Take an optional trip by horse sled to search for the Northern Lights along the snow covered shores of the Reisafjord. 

Day three

Enjoy the day at your own pace before leaving in the evening for a Northern Lights adventure by dog sled. Learn the art of mushing as you whoosh off into the wilderness with your eager pack of husky dogs. With luck, the Northern Lights will dance above in the night sky. 

Day four

Return to Tromsø to rejoin your onward travel plans. Or extend your stay at the Lodge with additional nights.
