Ski touring in Norway
Lyngen Alps – Ski touring in the land of the fjords
Join us for a unique alpine adventure north of the Arctic Circle! This stay in the Lyngen Alps will immerse you in snow-capped fjords, remote peaks, and arctic light. Far from mass tourism, this is a paradise for ski touring enthusiasts in Norway.
Who is this ski trip to Norway for?
For skiers in good physical condition with some ski touring experience and technically comfortable. The outings are adapted each day according to the weather and the level of the group, to enjoy the trip in complete safety.
Contrary to popular belief, going skiing in Norway doesn’t necessarily mean a big budget. The trip is designed without the frills, with simple and shared logistics: warm accommodation in a shared house, shared and independent meals, and a 9-seater vehicle for transportation. The result: a real ski trip north of the Arctic Circle at a controlled cost, often much more accessible than traditional organized trips while retaining the essentials: skiing and happiness.

Think about cancellation insurance:
It is strongly recommended that you take out cancellation insurance before booking.
This will cover you in the event of an unforeseen event (injury, professional impediment, family unforeseen event, etc.) resulting in the cancellation of your participation. Without this, the costs incurred for the stay will be reimbursed according to the scale of the General Terms and Conditions.
An option for “Impact Évasion” cancellation insurance will be offered to you at the time of your reservation.
Mandatory personal insurance:
- Individual liability insurance
- Insurance covering rescue and repatriation costs
My equipment advice:
Conditions vary quickly in the mountains: plan for modular clothing. The 3-layer system is ideal (1st technical layer + thermal layer + windproof layer). A 4th emergency layer can be useful (e.g., sleeveless down jacket). Avoid sweating in clothes that are too warm: humidity prevents you from warming up even with a heavy down jacket.
