Enjoy the cool breeze brushing against your face as you ride across the snowy terrains on a snowmobile! Join Æventyr for a fun snowmobiling trip in Alta.
If there is a place in Northern Norway where you can witness the typical Norwegian winter, it is in Finnmark. This county is home to Finnmarksvidda – the most extensive mountain plateau in Norway. Explore the continuous snow lands of the flat plains on a snowmobile trip with Æventyr. This exciting outdoor adventure is curated to give you 3-hours of excitement and fun with utmost safety.
Participants are accompanied by a local guide who will give a brief introduction to the itinerary for the day. You will also be given safety and driving instructions before the trip begins. After guests have prepared themselves with the safety gear provided, they will be teamed up in two pairs – one as the driver and one as the passenger. During the ride, you and your partner can switch seats on the vehicle to experience both roles.
The journey begins from the low-lying areas of Finnmarksvidda into the vast snowfields. As you speed across the flat areas of the plateau, you can’t help but notice the serene beauty of its snow-covered terrains. As the safari continues, you will slowly but steadily go into slight elevations while ascending on the edges. The goal is to ride the snowmobile to the highest point on the plateau through the historic postal route.
Once you reach the top, it is time for a break, and you will be given snacks or cake along with warm beverages. Soak in the natural beauty of Finnmark while gazing at the beautiful sceneries around. After spending some time in the highlands, it is time to head back to the starting point.
This snowmobiling tour is available from January through April and is suitable for most people, including those with no previous experience. Æventyr offers pick-up and drop-off of all guests from and at Alta.
You will share a snowmobile with another passenger, so each of you will get to drive half of the trip. If you want to drive all by yourself, you select "own snowwmobile" in the ticket options.
