Norway: Ski & Sail odyssey in the Lyngen Alps

Description

Experience the ultimate ski touring adventure between the sea and the summits. Embark on a private cruise from Tromsø and ski the wild peaks of Norway, with descents leading directly back to the shoreline.

The concept: your mobile base camp

Forget traditional hotels and car transfers. For this exceptional journey, your home is a privatized cruise ship that navigates through the fjords. This unique mode of travel allows us to reach remote slopes and enjoy one to two ski touring outings daily in the mountains overlooking the water.

Each evening, after a day of skiing in the crisp Arctic air, you will return to the comfort of your double cabin for meals prepared by the professional crew on board. If luck is on our side, we may even witness the Northern Lights illuminating the night sky.
