Ski Touring Trip Lofoten | Norway with Mountain Guide

• Procedure and meeting place

  The organised trip is from Saturday to Saturday from and to Evens-Harstad-Narvik Airport (EVE). We go on unique ski tours and immerse ourselves in the breathtaking mountain world with its steep rock faces and the glittering sea. We spend the night in a beautiful Rorbu and enjoy the time together in our beautiful home.

  • Day 1 - Arrival

    approx. 15:30 Evens-Harstad-Narvik (EVE)

    We fly from Zurich to Evens-Harstad-Narvik. The flight is not included in the trip and must be organised by yourself. There is a direct Swiss flight, which we recommend travelling on. Of course you can also use another flight or arrive earlier. We will meet at the latest after the arrival of the direct flight at the airport in Evenes. We will continue to Kalle, south of Svolvaer, by hire car. The journey takes around 4 hours, which we shorten with a visit to a good and nice restaurant.

  • Day 2 - 7

    Every day we go on ski tours in breathtaking surroundings. Depending on the weather and snow conditions, the tours are sometimes shorter, sometimes longer. We reach our starting points comfortably with the hire vehicles - so we not only explore different touring areas, but also experience the impressive island landscape of the Lofoten up close. Sightseeing is therefore a matter of course. Every tour offers unique views and unforgettable moments that never cease to amaze us. After an eventful day, we relax in the sauna right by the fjord and enjoy the peace and quiet outside our accommodation.

    There is also plenty of culinary variety: depending on our mood, we eat together in restaurants or cook for ourselves.
    A special highlight awaits us on one of the days: a boat trip through the fjords - combined with a ski tour in one of the lonely, unspoilt areas.

  • Day 8

    approx. 18:00 Zurich Airport (ZRH)

    On the last day we will travel back together to the airport in Harstad/Narvik and take the flight back to Zurich. Of course you can also stay longer in Norway.

• Requirements

  • Mastering the ski touring technique with its basics (skins, hairpin bends). These are often normal ski tours, as we know them from Switzerland. If possible, we also include tours with passages where we tie on the skis or a foot ascent is included.
  • Safe downhill technique in open terrain and in different types of snow. We often find the most beautiful powder snow. But like everywhere else, the weather can do what it wants.
  • Condition for 1000m of ascent at a leisurely pace over a week. Sometimes we will do less than 1000m and sometimes more. We divide the tours so that we have enough energy for all days!
