From Camp Tamok: Tromso Ice Domes Visit & Wilderness Experience

Upon arrival at the camp, you can freshen up and get geared up in the warm winter clothes and boots we provide, ensuring you stay warm and comfortable throughout your stay at the camp. Our camp host will guide you through the day's program.  

Divided into smaller groups you will participate in a variety of engaging experiences, some accompanied by a guide, others to explore independently.  

Campfire Crafting:

Learn the essential survival skills from your knowledgeable guide as you partake in the art of crafting a campfire, essential for staying comfortable on a cold winter's day. Master the art of starting an outdoor fire yourself and gather around its warmth and light while you immerse yourself in captivating stories about the local lifestyle and the rich culture of the Arctic region. Grill your own sausage on the open fire while we serve a warm soup and hot berry juice keeping you warm and cozy outdoors.  

Snow Adventures:

Get active and try navigating through snow-covered terrain on tandem skis. Race the other team for an extra dose of excitement! Learn about the history and evolution of skis; from its traditional form of transportation to its recreational and competitive forms today.  

Tromsø Ice Domes Snow Park:

Discover the magic of the snow and ice sculptures inside the Snow Park! Wander around by yourself through a mesmerising display of snow and ice sculptures, a snow maze and explore our two domes. Marvel at the amazing art coming to life with light in its natural surroundings of pristine nature and peaceful Arctic landscapes.  

Encounters with Arctic Wildlife:

Get close to the two most iconic animals of Northern Norway: cuddle and take photos with our huskies and go visit the reindeer herding near the Sculpture Park.  

Important information: Please note that this activity will take place outdoors, exposing you to the elements of the Arctic winter. Therefore, it is crucial to dress warmly and appropriately for the weather conditions to ensure your comfort throughout the experience.
