Notes
Read practical information below
Learn how to operate your own snowmobile from experienced instructors
Drive your snowmobile through the night over the mountains
Hear your guides tell stories about life in Finnmark county
Gaze in awe at the Northern Lights if they happen to appear during your ride
Join us on an unforgettable snowmobile trip in one of Europe’s most pristine natural areas. For a safe and enjoyable ride, listen closely to your expert instructors as they give you snowmobile training before you begin.
You’ll then travel from Mehamn, the world’s northernmost mainland town, over the mountains and halfway to the old trading post and fishing village of Kjøllefjord. A short bus ride will take you down to the port, where you’ll rejoin the ship.
Along the way, your guides will tell you about the local lifestyle and customs. You’ll also learn about the geographic and climatic conditions of the area, and you’ll find out more about the indigenous Sámi people.
Experience the snow-clad valleys and the fresh winter air, perhaps under the mesmerising Northern Lights should they occur in the skies above. If you travel with us during springtime, you might still see the aurora borealis, and possibly the soft glow of the sun towards the end of your ride, along with a milder climate.
