Nordic Adventures is the outdoor program for those who want to experience the highlights of Nordic nature, and experience the variation between the countries in Scandinavia.
In January, when it is coldest, we go on an adventurous outdoor trip to Lapland in Northern Finland! Here we get to experience real winter outdoor life, with Northern Lights hunting, powder and dog sledding. We also bring fishing equipment for ice fishing on icy ponds.
Join us on a unique study trip to Iceland! You get to experience the country's nature through spectacular mountain hikes, volcanic landscapes and hot springs. Explore glaciers, waterfalls, and black-sand beaches while learning about the outdoors in one of the world's most fascinating ecosystems.
Put your backpack on your back and walk with the line through exciting fields in Rondane. We bring tents and find great places to sleep. Maybe you are also challenged on a night under a starry sky? Everyday life in Norway is otherwise filled with a great variety of outdoor activities.

Morocco offers a truly unique blend of nature, culture, and climate — making it one of Africa’s most exciting and awe-inspiring destinations for adventure and outdoor experiences.
The Atlas Mountains boast snow-capped peaks, deep valleys, and small traditional villages — the perfect setting for hiking and mountain biking. The culture is rich and fascinating, and outdoor life here is about much more than nature — it’s about meaningful encounters with people and traditions. We’ll spend the night in a Bedouin camp and visit nomadic villages where people still live much as they have for generations.
The journey ends by the coast with surf lessons in Agadir — a perfect way to wrap up an unforgettable adventure.
Highlights:
Hike Mount Toubkal (4,167 m)
Camel ride in the desert
Trail biking in the Atlas Mountains
Overnight stay in a Bedouin camp
Learn about desert life, sandboarding & community
Surf course in Agadir
