Snowhotel Kirkenes Escape
Delve deep into the arctic on this incredible 4-night adventure to Norway. After a night in the country's capital, travel north of the Arctic Circle to the village of Kirkenes, located right by both the Russian and Finnish borders.
Spend one memorable night at -4°C in an ice room at the famous Snowhotel, and then cosy up for two nights in your cosy Gamme Cabin. Experience the finest that winter has to offer with a dog sledding or king crab safari, and of course, go hunting for one of natures most magical phenomenons: the northern lights.
This experiential winter getaway is ideal for those looking for an arctic getaway that is a little bit different and far away from the crowds of some of the other, more touristed regions north of the Arctic Circle. Kirkenes is a breathtakingly remote destination that feels like you've travelled right to the top of the world.
