The Lyngen Alps are a young mountain range in Norway, made up of wild peaks sinking firmly in the North Atlantic Ocean beyond the Arctic Circle. Their incredible geographical exuberance has fascinated skiers for years! A small number of larger islands offer abundance of powerful verticality, while an infinite galaxy of smaller islands, inlets and rocks, small harbors, bays and high cliffs, thin ridges and white beaches offer breathtaking landscapes and ever-changing emotions.

Senja Island is located about 300 km north of the Arctic Circle, on the northwest coast of Norway. It is the second largest island in the country and is known as "the magical island" or "miniature Norway", due to the wide variety of landscapes on the island. Here you will find deep fjords, alpine peaks and undulating terrain sprinkled with lakes and peaks. The highest peaks reach 1000 m, so they are great targets for day trips and many of them descend directly into the sea, offering breathtaking sceneries. For fitter and stronger skiers, there are numerous options for connections, traverses and steep descents to make the days an extraordinary experience. The island also has a good road network, which allows you to reach even the most remote places in about an hour from where we will stay.
