"Tur med Emma og Signar til Arnøya anbefales!! Vi har nettopp hatt tre utrolige dager i urørt snø og fjell. Kom dere ut på tur!" Björn Malm, guest on the first ever guided Arnøya Haute Route in 2017

​

Arnøya is an island in the very north of Norway, north of the popular Lyngen Alps. It hosts endless of opportunities of untouched snow-covered slopes and vast landscapes of jagged peaks. In the winter of 2016, Emma pioneered the Arnøya Haute Route together with friends. During three stunning days they traversed the island, skiing slopes we believe have never have been skied before, and crossing over most of the highest peaks on the island. Wanting to share this stunning adventure, Alpine Adventures set up a guided tour that was successfully run for the first time in 2017. Join us on an unforgettable three-day ski tour in a pristine area in Northern Norway!
