Description
Meet Arctic Animals and Experience Local Culture – Reindeer and HuskiesJoin us for a memorable day in beautiful Lyngenfjord, where breathtaking scenery, Arctic atmosphere, and close encounters with reindeer and huskies take center stage. Round-trip transportation from Tromsø is included!
Upon arrival, you will receive a warm welcome from the hotel hosts.
Your experience begins with a visit to our reindeer enclosure, where you can get up close to these fascinating Arctic animals, feed them, and capture wonderful photographs. Reindeer have played an important role in the culture and way of life in Northern Norway for generations, and this is a unique opportunity to learn more about these remarkable animals.
After meeting the reindeer, you will be invited into the hotel's traditional lavvu (Sámi tent). Gather around a crackling fire, enjoy a warming drink, and soak up the peaceful atmosphere that makes winter in the Arctic so special.
Enjoy a Warming Lunch with Local FlavoursAfter your outdoor experiences, a delicious lunch awaits you in the restaurant at Lyngenfjord Hotel.
Enjoy the hotel's traditional reindeer soup, inspired by local culinary traditions. This flavourful and warming dish is the perfect way to recharge after spending time in the fresh Arctic air.
Visit an Authentic Husky FarmAfter lunch, your adventure continues with a short minibus ride to a nearby husky farm.
Here, you'll have the opportunity to meet energetic and friendly sled dogs, an iconic part of Arctic life. Get to know the dogs, cuddle playful puppies when available, and discover how these remarkable animals are trained and cared for.
Your hosts at the husky farm will share insights into everyday life with the dogs, their incredible strength and enthusiasm, and the important role sled dogs have played throughout the history of the Arctic.
This visit offers a personal glimpse into life at a working husky kennel, along with plenty of fantastic photo opportunities.
Enjoy Your Final Moments by LyngenfjordFollowing your visit to the husky farm, you will return to Lyngenfjord Hotel. Take some time to admire the beautiful views of the fjord and surrounding mountains, capture a few final photographs, or browse the hotel's souvenir shop.
A wonderful and relaxing day filled with breathtaking scenery, local flavours, authentic Arctic atmosphere, and unforgettable encounters with both reindeer and huskies.
