Treat yourself to one of the best ski touring trips in Norway and explore the coastal Steigen marked by 1,000-meter (3,281-foot) mountains rising from the sea!
Cast anchor at one of the countless fjords carving into the district, well inside the Arctic Circle, and head for the mountains. After all, it’s exactly what you’re supposed to be doing here, as Steigen translates to mount or rise, referring to its high and steep peaks. It takes a while to reach the top, but when you ski down the relatively mellow slopes boasting incredible panoramic views—snow-covered peaks and islands surrounded by blue waters—you’ll want to go again and again. In the evenings, keep an eye out for the ethereal Northern Lights!-
You’ll be picked up by your guides from a predetermined location and taken to the sailing ship, your home for the upcoming week. After meeting the crew and the team, you’ll go through safety precautions, daily schedule, division of responsibilities, etc. Set sail immediately and enjoy your first dinner cruising down the Arctic Ocean to the next location of your Norway ski trip.

Wake up to the smell of fresh coffee and have a delicious breakfast to kick off the day. Load the gear into a dinghy and start your adventure. After your guide has made sure that everyone is feeling comfortable and safe on the snow, you’ll start climbing up those white-clad mountains. With a change of locations every day, you’ll be doing epic summit-to-sea descents on new terrain. Don’t forget, you’re not getting your usual wintry vistas on this trip—you’ll be touring Norway’s mountains with perfect views of nearby islands and peaks surrounded by the blue Arctic Ocean. Descend to the sea where the ship is waiting for you at the end of the day and watch the sun go down into the ocean. Hit the hay early because tomorrow is another day like this.

This thrilling adventure has unfortunately come to an end. But look on the bright side—you’ve skied on incredible terrain, pushed your skiing skills to a new level, and enjoyed some of the finest icy panoramas in the world. Have your breakfast in the morning and say goodbye to the crew. You’ll be transferred to the harbor and the airport and head home.
