Discover the beautiful snowy mountains of Eggum in Lofoten on this half-day snowshoe tour. Welcoming all experience levels, ages 18 and up!

Located in Lofoten, a group of islands in the Norwegian Sea, Eggum is situated north of the Arctic Circle. Due to its magnificent landscape, breathtaking mountains, and rich history, this area is known for its diverse outdoor activities. This daily 4-hour excursion is the perfect way to discover Norway's stunning winter landscapes.

Firstly, you and your group (a maximum of 10 participants) will meet your experienced guide, who will ensure your safety and comfort on the day. Prior snowshoe knowledge is not necessary, as you will go through a safety briefing and introduction to snowshoeing techniques after receiving the equipment (snowshoes and poles).

Then, your guide will lead the way over snow-covered trails to reach the peak of Eggum, overlooking the impressive winter wonderland. During the excursion, you will have the opportunity to marvel at the beautiful mountains of the Archipelago, including a spectacular frozen coastline during the winter, while taking in the stillness and peacefulness of nature in the area. If you are lucky, you may spot animal tracks and some of the region's wildlife.

In addition, your guide will share information about the unique history and traditional winter life of Eggum and Lofoten - don’t hesitate to ask any questions! You will also learn some interesting facts about the Vikings of the region. Midway through the tour, you will stop for a break in a scenic spot to enjoy a nice hot coffee or tea and some delicious snacks.

This half-day snowshoe hike is the perfect way to truly immerse yourself in the extraordinary winter wilderness of Lofoten's Eggum. For an unforgettable adventure, book your tour in Norway now!
