An amazing day with amazing staff. The instructions sounded a little daunting, but everything went really smoothly and there was someone to meet us at each location to tell us where to go. Would thoroughly recommend!

We had an amazing day. The guides were fantastic, they really made sure we had a great time and were super friendly and happy. The snowmobiling was fantastic. We were transported from Tromso on a very comfortable coach, put on a ferry and met on the other side. I highly recommend this trip.

Full description

Based in Lyngen near Tromsø, visit Camp Troll and experience a day of exploration, excitement, and fun on a snowmobile safari. You can drive a snowmobile beneath giant mountains and learn how these spectacular summits inspired Norwegian Folklore.

Depart from Tromsø city center by bus which will take you to Breivikeidet where you’ll board the ferry as a foot passenger (included). Meet a representative on the other side at Svensby for further transport.

On arrival at base camp, meet your guide and listen as they detail practical instructions on how to handle a snowmobile. Watch a safety demonstration and then get changed before heading out.

Drive your snowmobile in pairs (one driver and one passenger) and get the opportunity to switch drivers at the halfway point. Travel deep into nature whilst exploring the mythical world of trolls on a scenic trail through the Lyngen Alps.

Enjoy time in the beautiful scenery and take pictures, keeping an eye out for the magical trolls you’ll be learning about. Later, head back to the base camp to enjoy a hot meal served around the fire before you depart.

With a full stomach, return to the ferry after your tour, where you will return to Tromsø.
