This morning after breakfast, you will meet your guide and group and head out for today's adventure.
This trip is about exploring and going through varied terrain in a majestic landscape. Along the way, we have a short stay to make a fire, have a coffee, and enjoy some snacks. You will share a sled and will be able to change drivers in the middle of the trip. Before starting the experience, you get the chance to help change the harness on the team and also greet the Alaskan huskies. An incredible bond arises between the huskies and the people on the sleigh. You will quickly learn to guide and talk to them, and if there is one thing the Huskies love, it is running and getting a hug. This is a trip where you will experience friendship with animals, beautiful scenery, and fantastic views in the heart of the Lyngen Alps. Because the trip is quite long and with challenging trails, you need to be in good physical shape.

Drive on a snowmobile safari in outer Lyngen, surrounded by the Lyngen Alps. We follow the snowmobile trail up the mountain. The trail starts with simple and flat roads. Here you learn to handle the snowmobile and use it as a tool for exploring this fascinating nature. During the trip, we will stop at several places so we can take pictures or just look at nature's beautiful scenes. Seeing the mighty Alps while you are so close to the sea is very special and gives a powerful impression. We will drive in pairs, with an opportunity to change drivers halfway if desired. The Snowmobile Experience can also be provided during the evening, giving the possibility to enjoy the Northern Lights while adventuring into the Lyngen Alps.
