Just outside the city centre, at Snow Resort Kirkenes, you can stay in an Aurora Gamme cabin during the night and spend your day doing exciting activities like dog sledding, king crab fishing, snowmobiling – and of course Northern Lights chasing.
Our wooden Gamme cabins are inspired by traditional Sami hunting and fishing huts once found deep in the wilderness of Lapland. The cabins are created to blend naturally into their surroundings, complementing the raw landscape rather than competing with it. Many guests describe our small forest village as something out of Tolkien’s Hobbiton; A place that feels magical, peaceful, and slightly unreal.
Behind the rustic exterior, each Gamme cabin offers modern amenities and a surprisingly high level of comfort. Natural wood, tiled surfaces, underfloor heating, air conditioning, and thoughtful design ensure a cozy stay year-round. A large panoramic window allows guests to watch for the Northern Lights in winter or enjoy the Midnight sun in summer, all from the warmth of their cabin.
Type 1: Standard Gamme Cabins – Cozy Comfort at the heart of the Resort
Our Standard Gamme Cabins are a welcoming and comfortable choice for guests looking to stay close in the center of the Resort. Located with views toward the Snowhotel, these cabins form part of the original Gamme village and were built a few years ago.Slightly smaller in size, the Standard Gamme Cabins offer a practical and well-designed space with a solid, standard level of comfort. They maintain the same distinctive Gamme style, with natural materials, modern heating solutions, and a warm interior atmosphere that makes them ideal for relaxing after a day of Arctic activities.
Their location near the main resort area makes them especially convenient, with easy access to the restaurant, activity meeting points, and other facilities. These cabins are a great option for guests who value proximity, comfort, and a classic wilderness lodge experience.
Type 2: Fjord View Gamme Cabins – New, Spacious, and Exceptionally Quiet
The Gamme Fjord View Cabins represent the next level of the Gamme experience and are now open for stays from 1 February. Brand new and built this year, these cabins are slightly larger and offer an enhanced sense of space, privacy, and exclusivity.
Set a bit away from the main resort area, the Fjord View Cabins enjoy a quieter location with uninterrupted views over the fjord and surrounding mountains. Similar to the Standard Gamme Cabin, a large window offers amazing view to the surrounding arctic landscape, creating a constant connection to nature and changing light conditions throughout the day and night.
Inside, the cabins feature a high-end wooden interior and refined details inspired by Nordic design traditions. The atmosphere is warm, calm, and exclusive, ideal for guests seeking tranquility without sacrificing comfort. Despite their peaceful setting, the cabins remain within easy reach of the restaurant, activity areas, and guided experiences, offering the perfect balance between seclusion and accessibility.
The Gamme Fjord View Cabins are an exceptional choice for travellers looking for a memorable Arctic stay, combining modern design, stunning scenery, and the quiet magic of Northern Norway.
A stay at the cabins includes breakfast and dinner, the latter containing 3 courses at the authentic on site restaurant. No need to leave the resort, you have everything you need for a comfortable stay.
Nestled in the middle of the resort, you’ll find the magical hotel made of snow and ice. Open all year round, a snow room inside the Snowhotel365 is definitely the most unique accommodation option around!
