Experience Norway's backcountry skiing like never before in the breathtaking Lyngen Alps and Lofoten Islands, where unlimited sunshine meets incredible snow. Join PowderQuest's expertly led, small-group excursions from March to May for a unique experience that combines thrilling terrain, vibrant local culture, and stunning scenery.

Endless Daylight, Epic Adventures

With more than 20 hours of daylight in Norway's high Arctic, you'll have plenty of time to explore unexplored powder and take in the breathtaking scenery. Imagine soaring peaks, breathtaking 1,000-meter drops that lead directly to the sea, and the striking, unspoiled scenery that characterizes this area.

This is more than simply a winter vacation, it's a cultural experience, whether you're splitboarding or skiing. Our programs provide an innovative take on backcountry skiing, ranging from luxurious stays at a boutique lodge on a private island in Lofoten to life-changing ski and sailing excursions throughout the Lyngen Alps.

Boat-Accessed Backcountry Skiing

Boat access to secluded beaches and hidden ski lines is one of the most distinctive features of our backcountry Norway experience. The weather, tides, and currents determine the pace of your investigation, making each journey distinct. Every day offers a fresh experience.

Local hosts and qualified ski experts take after visitors at our brand-new, private Lofoten island resort. In addition to receiving knowledgeable backcountry assistance, you will get a true taste of the local way of life through fishing trips, beach clamming, and meals cooked by our private chef using foods that are acquired locally.

Exclusive Comfort in the Arctic

  • When not chasing powder, unwind in our newly built luxury lodge and oceanside spa, where the rugged beauty of Norway’s Arctic wilderness blends with personalized service and modern comfort.
  • Boat access to remote beaches and untouched terrain around the less-traveled parts of the Lofoten archipelago
  • A private, boutique lodge complete with seaside sauna and luxury accommodations
  • Friendly, passionate Norwegian ski guides and lodge hosts, eager to share local culture and insider knowledge of the terrain
  • A private chef serving freshly caught local seafood, Atlantic cod, reindeer sirloin, and traditional Norwegian fish soup (fiskesuppe)

Conclusion

Backcountry skiing in Norway is the perfect experience for both cultural explorers and powder chasers. The Lofoten Islands and Lyngen Alps provide an experience that is unmatched because of their unending daylight, immaculate powder, and secluded location. This is Norway as few people see it, whether you want to unwind in luxury in between ski slopes or get lost in the untainted Arctic wilderness.
