In a few words

In northern Norway , nestled between spectacular mountains and wild fjords , the islands of Kvaløya and Senja reveal a pristine Arctic territory with landscapes as contrasting as they are captivating. Here, gentle slopes give way to rugged peaks, with the vastness of the Norwegian Sea as a backdrop. From our welcoming ecolodge , located directly on the beach, you'll explore these exceptional panoramas each day on snowshoes . Built with a simple and authentic style, this houseboat-style retreat quickly becomes a true polar haven , ideal for observing the Northern Lights in comfort. Facing south , it offers breathtaking views of the north of Senja Island, while remaining sheltered from extremes thanks to the relatively mild coastal climate, influenced by the Gulf Stream . This winter stay immerses you in an unforgettable Nordic adventure , between contemplation , exploration and serenity , in one of the last great wild spaces in Europe.

The highlights

  • Discover a vast, still relatively unexplored playground, guided by a pro.
  • A star-shaped stay in an eco-lodge on the beach designed for relaxation.
  • Front row seats for observing the Northern Lights

Note

The snowshoeing program, based at our ecolodge, is developed throughout the week. We intentionally don't offer a pre-set itinerary because 30 years of experience in the Arctic have taught us that planning ahead is pointless. We analyze the situation daily to create the best possible route.

Our eco-lodge is a peaceful and welcoming place, designed for rejuvenation. Many guests who have stayed at the ends of the earth during their stopovers have told us they felt right at home. It is located in the heart of Sommarøy, an exceptional location. Sommarøy is easy to find; it's at the end of the road. Beyond, the vastness of the Norwegian Sea stretches all the way to the shores of Greenland. Our lodge caters to those for whom silence, space, and time are the true ingredients of luxury.


The photos of the ecolodge we're showing weren't taken in winter. Winter is whiter :-) Perhaps they give a better idea of ​​its location. In any case, we promise to try and take seasonal photos next winter.
