On Snow Experience
Known as a paradise for backcountry skiers, Senja is one of Norway’s most spectacular ski touring destinations. With remote and challenging terrain, striking slopes emerging directly from the fjords and the very real possibility of witnessing the Northern Lights, this is a bucket list adventure like no other. Six days of expert guided ski touring will take you deep into Senja’s remarkable backcountry, with top mountain guides on hand to ensure you get the most from every day on the mountain. Your base throughout is the charming Torsken Brygge – a beautifully renovated 1930s seaside pier offering modern boutique rooms right on the Arctic fjord. Unwind in the cosy waterfront lounge, enjoy a drink in the authentic historic pub, and soak in the breathtaking fjord views after a day on the mountain. An opportunity to immerse yourself in the raw beauty of Norway’s coastal summits this winter, this is an opportunity you won’t want to pass you by.
This trip includes six days of off piste skiing and touring with experienced guides. You’ll be guided by Senja by Heart. You’ll be split into groups of 6 based on your ski profile. This holiday is aimed at Silver Plus and Purple off piste skiers and will require a relatively good level of fitness and at least a weeks touring experience. It is essential that guests have the correct ski profile for their holiday, please see the view all the tabs at the top of this page for more information.

The policy should also include cover against losses caused by the effects or consequences of Covid-19.
Due to the type of holidays that you will be booking with us, we also advise that your policy should include skiing off-piste without a guide. Please note, insurance premiums must be paid at the same time as booking in order for the package holiday or single service cancellation cover to be effective. It is also advised to keep your insurance details with you while you are on your holiday. If you choose to travel without adequate insurance cover, we will not be liable for any losses howsoever arising, in respect of which insurance cover would otherwise have been available.
