Ski touring in Hardanger and Voss
Examples of trips include: Osafjellet, Oksen Peninsula, Raundalsryggen, Storeflåtten, and Myrkdalen. See all our tours on our website.
Evening and Moonlight Tours
Powerful torches have made mountain tours a popular evening and night activity. Few experiences can match tours at sunset and moonlight, powder skiing with descent illuminated by headlamps, or tours where you are lucky enough to see the Northern Lights from the summit. We offer tours where you can experience all of this - weather and conditions permitting.
Day Tours and Overnight Tours
We also offer tailor-made mountain tours, including both day and overnight trips. Please contact us if you have a specific tour in mind that you would like to undertake, or sign up for one of our scheduled tours from the tour program.
