We run away from the city center to idyllic landscapes of Kvaløya to enjoy: blue hours of polar night, snow, sun or snowstorms and to try snowshoeing the easy way - without climbing high mountains.

Before return we visit the local gem hidden on the shore in Ersfjord - Bryggejentene café - to relax over a cup of coffee, tea or chocolate and their famous cakes.

When visiting Tromsø, exploring Kvaløya is a must do! Islands packed with raw landscapes, endless mountains, arctic beaches, to breathtaking fjords, and (frozen) lakes.

Enjoy the ever changing landscapes, and be sure to look out for roaming wildlife. We have the possibilities to spot soaring sea eagles, native reindeers, and the elusive moose. There will be several scenic stops along the way, perfect for photo moments, which we will share with you after the trip. Upon reaching the archipelago islands, we will enjoy an organic homemade light picnic, and a warm drink. As we continue through the mountain valley, passing quaint fishing villages, and making a final stop at one of the most dramatic fjords on the island.
