SKI TOURING - 1 day
Ski Guiding in Kilpisjärvi, Lyngen and Troms
Why take a guide?
Our guides know the mountains in Kilpisjärvi, Lyngen and Troms areas and know the best ski touring places with years of experience. They also know how to take safety issues into account during excursions.
Discover the Lyngen Alps and the spectacular alpine landscapes of Troms and arctic wilderness of Kilpisjärvi region in northern Finland with Arctic Mountain Guides.
Using the knowledge of a local guide for a day of skiing is the easiest and safest way to not only find the best snow, but also to choose the most suitable downhill spots for your ability and aspirations. It is by far the easiest way of maximising your time in the mountains.
We arrange ski touring in Kilpisjärvi, Lyngen and Troms. In Kilpisjärvi, we can supplement our muscle power, if we choose, by using helicopter or snow-mobiles for transport - although these are not included in the price.
During the day, we will spend some time discussing basic snow safety tips (appropriate to your knowledge level and the conditions) but the focus will be on skiing itself.

Advanced skiing ability and prior ski touring experience required. You should be able to ski black diamond ski slopes at ski areas in just about any condition, and be able to ski ungroomed slopes of intermediate difficulty without any hesitation.
