Norway’s Arctic Calling
By Mario Koch
A snowy Norwegian winter offers a magical experience, especially in February and March. You’re out of the arctic night, and normal sunrises and sunsets create full days for exploring. I’ve crafted our Norway Winter Adventure to unfold in Alta, an off-the-beaten-path winter wonderland situated nearly 250 miles north of the Arctic Circle.
Embracing the outdoors is built right into Norwegian culture, and Alta’s diverse landscapes make it one of the best places to visit in Norway. Whether you’re snowmobiling, snowshoe hiking or gliding through forests via your own team of huskies, every day offers endless possibilities to explore and appreciate the land.
