Arctic Mix: Ski and Snowmobile

The most iconic ski touring experience in Svalbard

Do you dream of experiencing Svalbard’s raw and spectacular nature up close? Join us for a full-day adventure where we combine snowmobiling and ski touring – a great mix of speed, freedom, and skiing in untouched terrain.

We start in Longyearbyen and head out of town by snowmobile, straight into the Arctic wilderness. After about an hour, we leave all signs of civilization behind, surrounded by open mountain faces and snow-covered peaks. In this area, you’ll find several great summits such as Wimanfjellet (914 m), Hillestadfjellet (923 m), or Arctowskifjellet (957 m).

Along the way, we take time to enjoy the views – there are no groomed trails or ski lifts here, just untouched nature and snow-covered mountains stretching as far as the eye can see. Around midday, we take a break and enjoy a warm expedition-style lunch with views of the majestic landscape.

This is a private tour tailored to you and your group. With an experienced guide by your side, you’ll have a safe and flexible day in the mountains, adapted to your pace and skill level. The goal is simple: to spend a full day outdoors and give you an experience you won’t soon forget.
