Visit to the Polar Park (Narvik-Polar Park-Tromsø)

Visit the unique Polar Park, the northernmost animal park in the world, which is beautifully located in the Salangsdalen Valley in Bardu, 75km north of Narvik. You will be picked up at one of the hotels or the train station in the morning and transferred to the Polar Park. During this Norwegian wildlife experience, you have the chance to meet wolves, brown bears, lynx, arctic foxes, moose, reindeers and other polar animals.

A bus will transfer you from Narvik to the Polar Park. You will have approx. 5 hours at leisure to explore the park. The park focuses on the welfare of the animals; within its large enclosures, a natural environmental enrichment keeps the animals stimulated and active. Visiting the Polar Park in winter gives you the opportunity of seeing the animals in their thick winter fur. In addition, they are more active due to the low temperatures.

Every Saturday and Sunday, the park offers Predator guiding at 13:00 hrs. The tour is free of charge and takes 1 hour. During this guided tour, one of the zookepers will bring treats to feed to the predators (lynx, wolverine, brown bear, wolf and arctic fox) and you will get a chance to experience them up close.

Continue to Tromsø by bus after your visit at 15:00 hrs. Arrival in Tromsø at 18:15 hrs.
