Summer mountain hike
Hiking under the midnight sun is a fantastic experience, and something you should definitely do while in the north. There are plenty of mountains close to Tromsø, we´ll go where the weather and view are the best on that day.
The sun is visible over the horizon from May 18th. until Juli 25th, and you will have to be awake around midnight.

We have a few years of experience with northern lights and nature photography, and we always bring a camera. We know the good spots and we´ll throw in some helpful tips & tricks along the way.
There are plenty of hiking opportunities in the north - mostly only a stone's throw away from a city. We will adapt the terrain and pace to the group, and we´ll bring snowshoes if necessary. We promise you a good walk and a nice view.
The midnight sun
join in on a summer hike
Reidar is such an incredible host, no doubt about it. We were unable to go hiking to Tromdalstinden due to weather conditions. However, Reidar proposed another hiking options and we decided to go to blåisvannet. Wise decision I must say. The landscape is totally amazing. As we walked between spactacular mountains, Reidar explained to me some interesting facts about the area, like the type of vegetation, why the iceberg on top of the lake has shrank over the years, the reason why the deep blue color of the lake, among other things. At the lake, we had a tasty lunch prepared by Reidar. (The bread was baked by him! ). After taking some pictures, we headed back to the starting point. I would definitely recommend Reidar as a guide. He is a really nice person with good experience in outdoor activities in the area. Thank you Reidar for this unforgettable experience ! Blåisvannet is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.

Reidar took us to the most incredible point in Kvaløya (if I remember correctly). The place was wonderful, and we had the pleasure to contemplate two hours of northern lights around a bonfire, eating Norwegian stew.
This night felt safe, heartwarming and unforgettable! Last but not least: hunting for northern lights can be tricky and you are at the mercy of the forecasts: when he saw the forecasts, Reidar kindly offered us to move our evening to another date, to be sure to find those lights! Thanks, Reidar, I'll definitely come back
