Feel the freedom of a four-wheel ATV beneath you as you head out of Gargia Lodge and into the heart of arctic wilderness along the old post route from the North to the South. The trail climbs steadily through silver birch forests and along river valleys carved by snowmelt, revealing new layers of the landscape with every kilometre. The Finnmarksvidda – Europe's largest mountain plateau – waits above, vast and almost mythically quiet. As the treeline thins and the horizon opens, you burst onto the plateau proper. An endless ocean of tundra stretches in every direction: dwarf willow, lichens, and the occasional flash of a reindeer herd drifting across the emptiness. Your guide stops the convoy at a ridge-top viewpoint where the silence is absolute save for the wind, and explains how Sámi nomads live and how the old post route was built. The return route swings through terrain that rewards beautiful scenery with the alpine mountains at the coast in the horizon. Back at Gargia Lodge, warm beverages and snacks are waiting.

We were very lucky as our group consisted of us and one other couple. Our guide Marion was excellent and we were able to go off on one of the tracks. We were lucky to have a clear night and were able to see the lights and choose when to stop and watch.
the guide rose was amazing, her knowledge and understanding of the area and environment made our day so special she looked after us extremely well could not highly recommend enough
Es war spektakulär und unvergesslich! Wir wurden direkt am Kreuzfahrtterminal abgeholt und zur Winter Lodge gebracht. Dort wurden wir mit super warmen Boots, Anzügen (am besten eine kurze Jacke tragen!), Socken, Handschuhen, Tüchern und Helmen ausgestattet. So war uns auch bei -15 Grad mehr als warm...

Perfect experience all round! We were lucky enough to have amazing conditions to view the Northern lights during our trip and Vicky was a brilliant guide. We have some wonderful memories and photos to look back on. Would highly recommend.
It was such a great experience to be able to drive a dog sled yourself. We've been told exactly what to do. The guides were totally nice and the dogs were great. It was one of the best experiences in my life and I would book it again and again.
Sehr spannend und durchaus anspruchsvoll- nichts für zarte Nerven. Es ist ein echtes Event, das auch Kondition voraussetzt. Der Weg geht durch den Wald und es sind viele Kurven. Der Fahrer hat also wirklich etwas zu tun. Trotz allem ist es ein besonderes Erlebnis! Der Guide war sehr aufmerksam und h...
