Hardangervidda Winter Expedition

Unplug and reconnect with nature on Europe’s largest mountain plateau.

What to expect

A week across Europe’s largest mountain plateau

This is a true wilderness expedition — no marked snowmobile trails and no cabin comforts. Each day we travel 10–15 km on skis, pulling sleds with our gear, and set camp in tents out on the plateau.

The trip is rated moderate to advanced. Conditions can be challenging, but the reward is complete immersion in nature: vast silence, reindeer tracks, and nights under the stars.

Evenings are spent preparing meals together and sharing stories by the light of the stove. It’s a demanding but unforgettable experience of Norway’s high mountain wilderness.
