Learn how to ski! This tour is a fantastic introduction to cross-country skiing for beginners.
An experienced ski instructor will teach you the basic skills: how to get your skis on and off, getting back up after a fall and gliding across a completely flat area. Then you go skiing in flat terrain, mostly on prepared trails. As you become more accustomed to the skis and gain more confidence, the instructor teaches you additional techniques along the route, so that by the end of the tour, you may want to challenge yourself on small hills. Take in the beautiful scenery as you gently ski along the top of Tromsøya island.
After the cross-country ski trek, it is time to take a break where you are served a hot drink and a traditional Norwegian snack called lefse.
