Package Description
Arriving at the Snowhotel, you can check-in at our reception where we will give you all necessary practical information and take care of your luggage. Gabba will be open, and it is recommended to order lunch before going out on your first adventure.
At 13:00, gather at the dog yard for your dog sledding adventure. We'll provide you with essential gear, including a thermal suit, boots, and gloves, before setting off. A skilled dog musher will guide the sled, with two participants seated together. If conditions permit, you'll have the opportunity to drive the sled yourselves when crossing the frozen fjord.
Upon return, you will have some free time to explore the Park, or relax in our lounge until the dinner.
The dinner program will start with a guided tour of the Snowhotel. During your three-course dinner in Låven restaurant we will give a "how-to-sleep-in-the-Snowhotel" tutorial on how to sleep comfortably in our minus 4 Celsius Snow Rooms. After dinner the ice bar at the Snowhotel will be open.
After waking up from a magical night at the Snowhotel, you are welcome to our breakfast buffet which is served at our restaurant. We will kindly ask you to check out of your Snow Room before breakfast.
After breakfast you will have time to enjoy our park; cuddle with the huskies and visit the reindeer, have some snow fun outside with our sleds, or go for a snowshoe or ski hike on your own (the equipment is free to borrow).
At 13:00, your guide will meet you in the restaurant lobby to begin the King Crab Safari. After gearing up with a thermal suit, boots, balaclava, helmet, and gloves, you'll ride out onto the frozen fjord on a snowmobile-pulled sled to fish for king crab. Once the catch is secured, you'll return to prepare and enjoy a fresh, hearty lunch back at the restaurant. The activity concludes around 16:00, giving you some free time to unwind in your cabin, relax in the sauna, or explore the surroundings before dinner.
On the last day you can enjoy our breakfast buffet once again before checking out. As requested in your reservation, we will take you to Kirkenes, the boat harbour or the airport.
