Sailing and ski touring over the Polar Circus - From april 24th to may 01st 2026
Description
Ski touring among the northern mountains with the constant presence of the sea is a truly unique experience; even more so when you reach the base of these mountains by boat. Our week in the Norwegian fjords is two adventures in one: sailing through the fjords and life on board combined with top-tier ski touring excursions. Aboard a comfortable catamaran, we will travel between the fjords and islands north of Tromsø, approaching the routes that inspire us the most. After thrilling descents, we will return to share life on board—enjoying fish soups, sailing, cod fishing, and occasionally a much-needed sauna. With a bit of luck, we might even witness the breathtaking phenomenon of the Northern Lights!
