Join us for a wilderness ski adventure - no resort, no lifts, no crowds.... just untouched snowy hills for miles and miles.
Our Hut-to-Hut ski tours are designed for free-heel skiers, using nordic backcountry skis with metal edges. With our heels free, we can glide across undulating terrain, enjoying the up-hills as well as the downhills and relaxing each night in a cosy mountain cabin.
If you'd like to come ski touring but you need to learn to ski first - see our 'Polar School' page!

HUT-TO-HUT SKI TOURING: AN INTRODUCTION
BACKCOUNTRY SKI TOURING IN ARCTIC NORWAY
This is an introduction to off-track ski touring, beginning with one day on tracks, to get our skiing legs working. We’ll then embark on a five-day journey through the mountains. As our skills improve and our back-packs become lighter, we’ll ski further and further each day.
Our nights will be spent in cosy wooden mountain cabins – no traffic or street lights just a wood-burning stove, a sky full of stars and hopefully the Northern Lights.
DATES 2011: Early April TBC
TINY GROUP: Minimum 2, Maximum 4.
IDEAL FOR YOU IF:
- You enjoy cross-country skiing in tracks and would like to taste more of the wilderness.
- You’ve tried back-country ski touring before but your skills are a bit rusty.
- You are an Alpine skier, familiar with carrying a back-pack and want to try freeing your heels.

DATES 2011: April is the best time to go. We can fit the dates to suit you - call us!
LEVEL: Intermediate off-track nordic ski touring over undulating terrain. 13 - 34km per day.
