Aurora Snowshoe hike - Amazing Troms
Join us for an evening trip on snowshoes, away from light pollution and noise, with the goal of experiencing the magical Northern Lights. Few activities are so easy for beginners, but at the same time exciting and adventurous as a snowshoeing trip.
We walk in the dark and snowy forests, through a fantastic landscape on the way to a vantage point especially good for observing the Northern Lights.
