Half Day Package with Tromsø Ice Domes Snow Park & Wilderness Experience – Incl. Transport
Spend a day at Camp Tamok and combine a visit to Tromsø Ice Domes Snow Park with a midday activity of your choice.
Your daytime adventures will begin with a 1,5-hour bus ride from Tromsø to the remote Tamok valley.
Upon arrival at the camp, you can freshen up and get geared up in the warm winter clothes and boots we provide, ensuring you stay warm and comfortable throughout your stay at the camp. Our camp host will inform you about the day's program.
Ice Domes Snow Park Visit & Wilderness Experience
Divided into smaller groups you will participate in a variety of engaging experiences, some accompanied by a guide, others to explore independently.
Learn the essential survival skills from your knowledgeable guide as you partake in the art of crafting a campfire, essential for staying comfortable on a cold winter's day. Master the art of starting an outdoor fire yourself and gather around its warmth and light while you immerse yourself in captivating stories about the local lifestyle and the rich culture of the Arctic region. Grill your own sausage on the open fire while we serve a warm soup and hot berry juice keeping you warm and cozy outdoors. Get active and try navigating through snow-covered terrain on tandem skis. Race the other team for an extra dose of excitement! Learn about the history and evolution of skis, from a traditional form of transportation to its recreational & competitive forms today. Encounters with Arctic Wildlife: Get close to the two most iconic animals of Northern Norway: cuddle and take photos with our huskies and go visit the reindeers near the Sculpture Park.
Camp Stay
After those first activities, most people will return to Tromsø by bus. Since you have chosen to stay at the camp combining the visit to the Snow Park with a Midday Activity, we have made it possible for you to stay at Camp Tamok in between activities. During this time, you will have the chance to explore the camp by yourself.
Midday Activity
Depending on your choice of activity (upon booking) you will head out on an adventurous dog sledding or snowmobiling tour followed by the time to relax and warm up with a hot meal in one of our lavvus (indigenous Sámi tent).
After the meal, it's time to board the bus and return to Tromsø, taking with you great memories of your day outdoors, filled with mixed activities!
