From Tromso Lyngen Alps Guided Snowmobile Tour afternoon

7 hours and 30 minutes

Moderate

Ready for your next winter adventure? Join us for a guided snowmobile tour through the stunning Lyngen Alps.

With this afternoon tour, depending on the month you are visiting, you might experience sunset, twilight, or a starry sky — sometimes we even get to see the northern lights from the snowmobile.

Upon arrival at Aurora Wonderland Basecamp, you'll receive your snowmobiling gear—suit, boots, and helmet. Our experienced English-speaking guide will teach you how to operate the snowmobile, followed by a short practice session before the tour begins.  

We drive in a line, safari-style, following approved and well-established trails. Safety is our top priority, and we always stay within designated paths. The terrain is varied, set in the mountainous region, offering fun and exciting driving challenges along the way. 

The ride lasts approximately 60 to 90 minutes and takes you through diverse and breathtaking landscapes. Each snowmobile is shared between two guests, with the opportunity to switch drivers at designated points during the tour.
