WEATHER CHANGES
Please check your e-mail or phone on the day of the hike for messages from us. Sometimes the weather gets in the way of a safe hike, and we need to re-schedule or cancel it on short notice. In such a case, we will notify you via text (SMS) and e-mail to the number and address you have provided us upon booking. The weather forecast changes quickly, so there is no point in checking several weeks in advance. Let us worry about that!

Do you want to see the mountains up close and personal? Come with us for a day in the snow! Snowshoe hiking is fun and easy to master, and we know the best spots for it!
The Gulf Stream warms up the south-western shores of Norway, meaning Stavanger is almost never covered in snow. However, just a couple of kilometers inland, the region’s majestic mountains rise hundreds of meters up and into the cold winter air. While people have already begun to enjoy grilling and picnics in Stavanger, thick layers of snow continue to blanket Norway’s mountaintops well into springtime. Snowy landscapes beckon to be explored, and snowshoe hiking is a fantastic way to do it!
The day starts with being picked up by our guide from your preferred location near/in Stavanger. We drive for about 1-2 hours before arriving at the parking area.
Depending on what location is most suitable in terms of weather and snow, we either go to Reinaknuten, Tverrfjell, or Hundedalen. All locations are fantastic to snowshoe hike.
If you would like to add additional experiences to the hike (e.g. yoga, RIB safari, beer-tasting etc.), or to customise the tour even more, check out our Tailored Private Experience!
