Experience Winter in Lofoten on Snowshoes

Experience the Arctic winter in Lofoten up close. With snowshoes on our feet, we explore snow-covered terrain surrounded by dramatic mountains, fjords and the sea.

Snowshoeing is an easy and accessible way to experience Lofoten in winter, and no previous experience is required. Our local guides adapt the tour to the weather, snow conditions and the level of the group.

We choose the route that offers the best experience on the day. Whether that means panoramic views of the Lofoten mountains, exploring a peaceful snow-covered landscape or finding a beautiful place to stop and simply enjoy the surroundings.

What to Expect on the Snowshoe Tour

We meet at the agreed meeting point (Trevarefabrikken) and start with a short introduction to the equipment and the plan for the day. Snowshoes and the necessary equipment are provided by us.

The exact route depends on the weather and snow conditions. Lofoten offers many beautiful areas for snowshoeing. Your guide will choose a route that suits the group and offers the best possible experience that day.

We take our time along the way, stopping at scenic viewpoints, taking photos and enjoying the winter landscape. Your guide will also share local knowledge about Lofoten, the surrounding nature and life in the Arctic.

You need your own car to get to the starting point!

The tour is adapted to the group, and no previous snowshoeing experience is required.

Who Is the Snowshoe Tour For?

Our snowshoe tours are perfect for anyone who wants to experience the winter landscape of Lofoten without skiing. No previous snowshoeing experience is required, and your guide will show you how to use the equipment before we set off.

The tour is suitable for couples, families, groups of friends and small groups. The pace, distance and terrain are adapted to the participants, making it a great experience whether you are active and outdoorsy or simply want to enjoy Lofoten’s winter landscape at a relaxed pace.

You should have a normal level of fitness and be comfortable walking for a few hours in varied terrain and winter conditions.

Local Guides – We Know Winter in Lofoten

I Fri Natur is based in Lofoten, and our guides know the local mountains and winter conditions well. This allows us to choose the best area for the day based on the weather, snow conditions and the wishes of the group.

For us, a great snowshoe tour is about more than following a fixed route. We want to share Lofoten as we know it – and find the experience that makes the most of the conditions that day.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kan virkelig anbefale klatrekurs hos I fri natur!

Vi var to personer som tok et kurs over tre dager med Vegard som instruktør. Kursdagene ble tilpasset vårt nivå og våre ambisjoner, og vi gikk fra aldri å ha satt naturlige sikringer før til å lede en fem taulengders trad-rute på egenhånd i løpet av tre dager. Vegard var meget god på å både vise og forklare, men også på å la oss prøve oss frem og finne løsninger selv uten å bryte inn mer enn nødvendig.

Dette var ekstremt lærerikt, gøy, utfordrende og ga masse mestring. Kommer helt klart til å velge kurs hos i fri natur igjen!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Vi var en vennegjeng som besøkte Henningsvær i forbindelse med et bryllup, og ønsket samtidig å få med oss en tur til Svolværgeita. Vi hadde sett mange bilder derfra på forhånd, og klatringen så både spektakulær og spennende ut.

I Fri Natur stilte med guider, og vi fikk en veldig god opplevelse fra start til slutt. Guidene var hyggelige, profesjonelle og flinke til å skape trygghet underveis. Ei i gruppen hadde gruet seg litt til klatringen, men guidene tok seg god tid, var tålmodige og fulgte henne opp på en veldig fin måte, samtidig som resten av gruppen ble godt ivaretatt.

Vi leide også sykler gjennom I Fri Natur mens vi bodde i Henningsvær. Vi bodde litt utenfor sentrumskjernen, så syklene gjorde det veldig enkelt å komme seg fram og tilbake og rundt ellers i Henningsvær. Det er ikke store avstander, men i løpet av en helg sparte vi både mye tid og en del gåing. Dette var absolutt et stort pluss for oss.

Turen opp Svolværgeita ble et av høydepunktene under oppholdet i Lofoten. Å stå på toppen var en fantastisk opplevelse, og noe vi kommer til å huske lenge.

Vi kan på det sterkeste anbefale både turen og I Fri Natur.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jeg opplevde turen min opp Geita som, trygg, gøy og skummelt. Alt på samma tid. Guidene som tok oss opp og ned var svært profesjonelle og jeg følte meg ivaretatt hele veien. Jeg var ikke redd for å spørre eller be dem dobbeltsjekke meg x antall ganger. Dette er en tur som anbefales på det steeerkeste og jeg gleder meg allerede til neste gang jeg skal opp!
