Snowshoes and meals in a warm place
We were very well received. Good quality loaned equipment.
The snowshoe ride went well. Beautiful landscapes with views of the fjord. We crossed the birch forest and took our time to admire the landscape.
A sense of freedom has invaded us. After the walk we went to a small wooden house where there was a fireplace in the center of the room. We tried a Norwegian speciality and grilled our fish steak.
Our host is very friendly and welcomed us warmly.
I recommend this excursion which is not limited to the walk.

If you do one thing in Tromso- do this!
Our snowshoeing with Wandering Owl was cancelled at the last minute due to weather so we pivoted and booked with Karin and her Skadi Adventures for the next day. It turned out to be the best thing we did in Tromso. She can go out in bad weather as her route is not so exposed. The group is small and Karin treats you like family where the tour starts and ends at her own home. It’s physically vigorous but she takes care of everyone. It’s also a lot of fun. You can tell Karin loves what she does. She laughed pretty much all the way down as we all ran through powder snow. Once down off the mountain we enjoyed a BBQ in her super cozy backyard hut. I highly recommend this tour over any of the others.

Clear!
We were the only ones who booked the tour so we had a private tour. Karin was a super sweet guide who took us into the mountains and told us a lot about the area. We laughed very much with her, and afterwards had a nice dinner at her house. Highly recommended!!

A little cardio in the Arctic
It was an amazing and challenging ride, not suitable for those who have no condition as it is a lot of cardio and climbing mountain with very strong inclinations.Karen was an exceptional and friendly guide. We definitely return to schedule tours with Skadi.

The Greatest Snoeshoeing Experience
Stayed in Tromso for a couple of days and decided to take on this activity with a friend of mine. It was the best decision we have made as it was the most fun and enjoyable experience ever! It was my first time snowshoeing and it was pretty easy to get the hang of it but as you get higher towards the hills it does get a bit tiring. So that is something to consider if you do get tired easily. Nonetheless, i had the best time enjoying the views and learning from Karin talk about the interesting things of Tromso. Going uphill was a journey but the views in the end were very rewarding. Along with that going down was so much fun as we learned how to run down the hills in the snow. If you’re in Tromso I’d say take on this adventure as it will be something that you’ll never forget!☃️ Thank you so much Karin for this awesome day! 🫶🏽

Amazing experience snowshoeing
Had the most amazing experience today with Karin! My friend and i were looking for an adventure on our trip to tromso and the “snowshoeing with a view exceeded expectations! Pristine snowy conditions made an amazing hike up with stops for hot chocolate and chocolate at an old farmers cabin. Karin was such a joy to do the tour with, kind, patient and enjoying the experience just as much as we were. The view from the top was amazing looking out over tromso the ocean and the surrounding islands. Going down was even more fun! Karin taught us how to run in our snowshoes through the drifts we couldn’t stop laughing. Then finishing with a homemade lunch at her beautiful home made for the most amazing trip. I would highly recommend you book with this wonderful family company

Great day snowshoeing :)
Great day! Lovely views from the walk up the hill, and lots of fun 'running' down the hill through the snow and the woods. Then had some delicious fish burgers in the bbq tent at Karin's place. Karin was a fab guide, very chatty and relaxed. Would recommend both Skadi and this activity from the list!
