Snowshoe trip, Uloya Island, Lyngenfjord
Some info...
The island of Uloya in the Lyngen and Kafjord fjords in northern Norway near Tromsø is one of the best places to admire the Northern Lights undisturbed. Hermann Berie has known the area for years and regularly explores it on skis and snowshoes. Directly from the lodge, you can comfortably watch the Northern Lights dance across the Arctic winter sky from the jacuzzi. The week is suitable for active snowshoers who want to enjoy themselves. The focus is not on athletic performance but on immersing yourself in a unique landscape with all your senses. Thanks to the location of the peninsula, there is no light pollution to disturb you, and you can experience the magnificent spectacle of the Northern Lights in the night sky completely unobstructed. During the day, go on leisurely guided snowshoe tours with your BERIE guide. The island of Uloya, for example, has mountains over 1,000 meters high, and from these peaks the view of the Lyngen Fjord and the Barents Sea is simply phenomenally beautiful. In the evening, you will be generously treated to freshly caught fish and local delicacies in the cozy and familiar lodge. Then spend another night in the university town and gateway to the North Pole, Tromsø.
