Learn cross-country skiing in Tromsø with patient guides, Arctic views, warm toddy, local sweets, and a scenic route for beginners.

“The guides were awesome. Very patient and clear in their explanations. As a beginner (me), even the gentle slopes were challenging 😂 but we had ample time to practice and one of them was always nearby (it’s good that there were 2 coaches). It’s not cheap (but everything in Tromso is expensive!) but you get high quality equipment and professional lesson. Overall, a fantastic experience!”

“Was a great evening of cross-country skiing. Our host was very friendly and got us kitted out quickly. We had an introduction to the basics of x-country and had a few runs in the warm up area. We then continued on the trail out around the park stopping after 5k for some warm blackcurrant and local snack. Towards the end of the evening we were introduced to some more advanced techniques and had a great time going down some larger hills!! Awesome evening 🤙”

5.Tromsø Cross-Country Ski Adventure

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 72 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $128

Review of Tromsø’s 2.5-hour cross-country ski tour, with equipment, beginner lessons, fjord views, pricing, transport tips, and honest drawbacks.

“The two young women leading the group were some of the best guides I've had -- friendly, informative, inclusive and fun. Our group of 8 included people with some experience cross country skiing and one in particular who could barely move without falling. And yet it somehow was managed well and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Those of us who were better skied ahead at some points and weren't bored and the slower ones got plenty of encouragement.”
