Activity description

Experience the magic Northern Lights on this 4-hour guided snowshoeing tour from Eggum in Lofoten. Welcoming adventurers ages 18 and up! 

Located in Lofoten, a group of islands in the Norwegian Sea, Eggum is situated north of the Arctic Circle. This area is known for its winter landscapes and breathtaking mountains. It is also one of the best places in the world to take in the breathtaking natural phenomenon of the Northern Lights!

Your adventure begins after meeting your experienced guide. No prior snowshoe knowledge is needed, as you will be provided with a safety briefing and an introduction to snowshoeing techniques after receiving your equipment (snowshoes and poles). Then, your group (a maximum of 10 participants) will set off into the peaceful, scenic back-country of Lofoten. Using the support of modern technology, your guide will take you to the best spot to view the Aurora Borealis. They will track the perfect viewpoint and give you the best chance at seeing the breathtaking dancing lights. In this remote location, far away from the city lights, you'll enjoy the tranquillity of the Arctic.

Midway through the excursion, you will enjoy a well-deserved break by a warm campfire, pausing for some delicious snacks and a hot drink while taking in the awe-inspiring Northern Lights. In addition, your guide will help you take the best photos of the night sky, so don’t forget to bring your camera to capture this once-in-a-lifetime moment!
