Ice fishing in a remote area facing the Lyngen Alps
Try ice fishing on a frozen lake with the best views of the rugged Lyngen Alps! This ice fishing tour starts in Tromsø and includes a 60-minute scenic drive (by minibus) between mountains and wild nature to our unique location in the heart of Ullsfjord. Fishing through ice holes is a traditional method used by indigenous peoples of the Arctic to find food and is a must-do winter activity in Arctic Norway.
Ice fishing, a unique Arctic experience
We equip ourselves with an ice drill, bait and ice fishing gear and head out on the frozen lake (wearing snowshoes if you wish) surrounded by breathtaking and untouched nature. We drill holes in the ice and get our fishing rods ready before sitting on cosy reindeer hides and waiting for the fish to bite! The fish you can catch while ice fishing are the Arctic char or trout. The guide will make a bonfire on the ice (weather permitting) and entertain you with fun stories and quizzes. Even if you don’t catch the big fish, this ice fishing adventure is still a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will surely be the highlight of your visit to Norway.
Hot drinks and snacks are served while you are waiting for the fish to bite.
You will be ice fishing for about 2 hours.
You are welcome to keep any fish you catch.
N.B.: Dress warmly to fully enjoy your time on the ice.
