About the activity

Explore the stunning Storsteinen Mountain and discover incredible views of one of Norway's most famous cities on this amazing evening snowshoeing excursion on Fjellheisen from Tromsø! Standing tall at 421 meters above sea level, Storsteinen Mountain and its cable car, Fjellheisen, are two of the best and most well-known landmarks in Tromsø. Once you have ridden the fun cable car to the top of the mountain, you'll be surprised by beautiful views of the city, and if you come in the winter, you'll even get to observe the Northern Lights as they hang above the artificial lights of Tromsø.

On the day of your snowshoeing excursion on Fjellheisen, you'll need to arrive at the Norwegian Travel Shop in central Tromsø to meet your instructor. There, you'll receive a warm welcome and a quick review of the itinerary for the day before you depart on the adventure! You'll take a private shuttle to the Fjellheisen lower cable car station, skip the line, and embark on the ride up Storsteinen Mountain. Once you reach the top, your instructor will distribute the snowshoes, poles, and headlights, give you time to gear up, and quickly teach you how to handle the snowshoes.

Once you're prepared, it's time to go! You'll start snowshoeing from Fjellheisen and take a 1-hour circuit, stopping to take beautiful pictures, and keeping your eye out for the Northern Lights above you. Your expert instructor will lead you through a path to observe the most beautiful views of Tromsø and the surrounding landscapes, before returning to Fjellheisen to rest, relax, and enjoy a warm drink and pastry as you keep an eye out for the Northern Lights from an open-air, panoramic terrace.

Keep in mind that the northern lights are a completely unpredictable natural phenomenon, which means that your instructor can't guarantee that you'll see them. That said, all you have to do to prepare for this amazing adventure is bring your best winter clothing, including wind and waterproof outerwear, various layers, and thermal underwear to keep you warm at all times. With that, you'll be able to spend an amazing 3.5 hours on this evening snowshoeing excursion on Fjellheisen from Tromsø!

Sign up to enjoy some of the best experiences available in Norway as you take a scenic ride, experience ascending a mountain in a cable car, hike around the snowy top of Storsteinen Mountain, and even get to observe the Northern Lights if you're lucky.
