Activities

Arctic light snowmobile experience

Experience the Arctic winter landscape whilst driving a snowmobile through the local nature. Sorrisniva pioneered snowmobile safaris and we continue to be the largest operator in Norway. Our guides will ensure a safe, yet exhilarating experience ranging from a short local trip to longer trips with lunch or an overnight stay in a mountain hut.

Our 3-hour Arctic Light Snowmobile Experience has you driving your own snowmobile through the wilderness of the Alta River valley up to the inland plateau. During the winter months the Arctic light often creates wonderful colours on the horizon despite the sun never rising. This adventure offers a combination of exhilarating snowmobiling and the Arctic wilderness under the special Arctic light conditions.
