Come on a study trip to Norway's winter mountains

Join us for an outdoor adventure into the snowy winter landscape of Norway. We will spend our days skiing, ice fishing and enjoying the magnificent landscapes.

Come along to Norway’s snowy winter landscape. We will spend our days skiing through the magnificent landscapes and come nightfall we will cozy up in cabins.

Living right at the tree line we will venture down in the valleys to find shelter among the forest trees, or up high in the mountains to enjoy the views, feel the wind in our hair and the sun on our faces.

Snow caves, ice fishing and spectacular views

We will work within the conditions the weather provides us putting our outdoor skills to good use. Some nights we will spend sleeping outside in the forest under the twinkling stars – and we might even build our own snow caves to enjoy the silence and quiet intimacy that characterises spending the night in the snow with your friends.

We might also go ice fishing on the lake or conquer one of the area’s highest mountain peaks – to enjoy the view but even more so to enjoy the descend skiing through untouched snow.

Norway winterlands is for everyone, regardless of skiing and outdoor experience.

Best Norway moment? This will sound weird but honestly; arriving at a camp after sleeping outside in the tents for two days, and finding a shoe drying machine there. Getting back into dry clothes never felt better!

One of the highlights from my trip to Norway was staying overnight at a deserted island – it was awesome!

As an introverted person, being surrounded by people almost all the time can be challanging. I really wanted to participate in everything, stay energetic and not miss out on anything. Sometimes its really hard to balance these things out.
