Norway
Fjords and mountains
Polar training
Winter in Norway is simply fantastic, with 2-3 metres of snow and magical light. Join us in our cabin high up in the Norwegian mountain areas to learn all about the skills you need to enjoy the snow and the mountains safely, learn to ski, pull a pulk (sledge), build an emergency survival snow shelter, and sleep out for two nights in a tent, snow cave or an igloo
Crossing Hardangervidda
A committing journey travelling over the high arctic plateau of the Hardanger – famous for its links with the WW2 Heroes of Telemark, and used as a training ground by Amundsen before his expedition to the South Pole. This is a great 'next step' trip for those who have completed the winter training course.
Crossing Norway
This ‘classic’ adventure, skiing from the Swedish border to the Norwegian west coast, covers 70 km of mountainous scenery in the Trøndelag region at 63 degrees north. It could also be called ‘To Hell and back…’ – the name of the train station where we start and finish! A great training trip for longer ski expeditions.
Skarvheimen hut to hut tour
Skiing high up in the Skarvheimen Norwegian mountains north of Finse, this journey covers between 12-16km each day. We ski with lightweight pulks, and stay ‘overnight indoors’ at a variety of mountain hyttes. There will be plenty of opportunities along the way, to improve your ski technique, especially on the downhills! Ideal for those who already have some cross country ski experience.
