What to expect?
Your Arctic adventure begins the moment you step into our luxurious Mercedes V-Class. As we whisk you away from your hotel to the majestic Lyngen Alps (approximately 90 minutes away), prepare for a journey peppered with tales, trivia, and safety tips from our certified guide. The route includes a brief ferry ride, providing another vantage point to admire the Arctic's beauty.
On arrival, gear up for a scenic hike that promises unparalleled rewards. As you traverse the Arctic wilderness, keep your eyes peeled for local fauna such as reindeer, eagles, and hares. Your destination, the Blue Ice Lake, is a visual spectacle with its brilliant blue hues set against a pristine white backdrop. Revel in the quietude and grandeur of the Arctic, taking a moment to savor a scrumptious local meal and steaming hot beverages.
Our guide will ensure that the 90-minute hike (one way) remains memorable. Though largely on flat terrain, the last leg does challenge with a rocky climb, but the panoramic view from the highest point at 189m is well worth it.
Concluding the day, we ensure a cozy ride back to your hotel and, as a memento, send you a digital album capturing the day's highlights.
