Immerse yourself in Norwegian nature and get a taste of Norway's most ancient tradition, hunting with bows and arrows on the island of Kvaløya, in Tromsø.

If you are looking for a unique adventure in Tromsø, look no further! Immerse yourself in Norwegian nature and get a taste of Norway's most ancient tradition, hunting with bows and arrows on the mesmerizing island of Kvaløya, situated northwest of Tromsø!

Your adventure begins with a pickup from the city center, in Tromsø heading towards the splendid island of Kvaløya, a 25-minute drive overlooking spectacular landscapes. Upon arrival, your certified guide will give you your very own bow followed by an introductory archery course, special techniques, posture, and safety rules.

After you've familiarized yourself with the bow, and shot your first arrows at close-ranged targets, the hike begins! Your guide has placed various realistic animal figures which will be your targets for the next 3 hours.

You will follow a circular path, and aim at the figures, set in the woods, swamps, hills, and rivers. As the hike is circular, you will end up back at the start, and you will have a lot of breaks in-between to sit down and rest as well. You will spot the prey, silently approach it and loose the winning arrow as you collect your own points. At the end of the adventure, your scores will be celebrated!

Let yourself be carried away by the wilderness in splendid Norwegian landscapes, rediscover your true nature, learn a new skill, awaken your instincts, and build your own strategy as you aim and hike along the mesmerizing Kvaløya.

Book your authentic adventure in Tromsø and discover archery in Kvaløya with your friends and family!
