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.
