About this activity

What Makes This Snowshoe Tour Special

This snowshoe adventure offers more than just a walk in the snow — it’s an immersive Arctic nature experience. Led by knowledgeable local guides, the tour combines peaceful forest trekking with storytelling about Kiruna’s wildlife, landscape, and way of life.

Unlike fast-paced or technical hikes, this tour follows a gentle uphill route at a relaxed pace, making it accessible and enjoyable for most fitness levels. Small groups allow for a personal experience, time to absorb the silence of the winter forest, and opportunities to spot wildlife tracks along the way.

The highlight comes at the top, where panoramic views reward your effort. Here, your guide prepares hot drinks and traditional Swedish fika over an open fire — a cozy, authentic moment rarely found on standard snowshoe tours.

Warm clothing, quality equipment, and thoughtful pacing ensure comfort even in Arctic conditions, creating a safe, memorable, and truly local winter experience.
