Roar across Europe's largest mountain plateau on a powerful snowmobile, following the historic postal road that once connected remote Arctic communities. Your adventure begins at the 150-year-old Gargia Lodge before ascending through snow-covered forests toward the legendary Beskades mountain range. Feel the machine respond beneath you as you climb higher, leaving civilization behind with every mile. The forest gradually opens until you burst onto Finnmarksvidda – an endless white ocean stretching to every horizon. Here, surrounded by absolute silence and infinite space, you'll understand why Arctic explorers were drawn to these remote expanses. Share driving duties with your passenger, switching halfway through this exhilarating journey across terrain that challenges and rewards in equal measure. Your certified guide shares stories of postal workers who once braved these same routes on skis, carrying mail between isolated settlements. Return to Gargia Lodge with snow-stung cheeks, racing heart, and memories of conquering one of Europe's most spectacular wilderness frontiers.

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.

Unabhängig vom vereinbarten Treffpunkt, wurden wir sogar direkt am Hafen von unserem Schiff abgeholt und wieder zurückgebracht. Es war Topp organisiert. Alle Guides waren super freundlich, immer hilfsbereit und es waren kaum noch Fragen offen. Die Hunde und die Haltungsbedingungen sind hervorragend....

From Alta: Northern Lights Night Adventure By Snowmobile
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.
