For those seeking a ski holiday unlike any other, Narvik offers the ultimate Arctic experience. Set high above the Arctic Circle, this remarkable destination combines world-class skiing with dramatic fjord scenery, vast wilderness, and the rich traditions of Norway’s northern frontier.
What makes Narvik unforgettable is its setting. From the slopes, you can gaze across deep-blue fjords and snow-covered peaks, with the Northern Lights often shimmering in the night sky. Beyond the skiing, Arctic adventures await - from dog sledding and snowmobiling to discovering local culture and cuisine. Narvik isn’t just a ski resort - it’s a gateway to Norway’s wild and magical north.
The ski area, Narvikfjellet, may be smaller in scale than Norway’s southern resorts, but it offers an experience that feels larger than life. Its unique Arctic setting, steep terrain, and vast horizons create a sense of adventure unlike anywhere else in Scandinavia.
With a long season stretching from November to May, snow is assured for much of the year. The mountain caters especially well to confident skiers, offering challenging pistes, open bowls, and exceptional access to untouched backcountry. For those who prefer a more gentle pace, well-groomed runs and panoramic viewpoints make every descent memorable.
Narvik is defined by its dramatic 889-metre lift-served vertical, with pistes that sweep toward the fjord below. In late spring, the experience becomes even more extraordinary - carving turns beneath the soft glow of the midnight sun, a sight found only in the Arctic.
Master the mountains in Narvik!
For those drawn to the untamed side of the Arctic, Narvik is a gateway to some of Norway’s most spectacular ski touring terrain. Beyond the lifts, vast backcountry routes unfold across sharp ridge-lines and untouched valleys, with views that stretch from jagged peaks to the glimmering fjords below.
Whether you’re ascending under the Arctic sun or in the ethereal glow of the Northern Lights, each climb unveils silence, solitude, and descents that feel endless. With expert local guides, safe conditions, and wilderness on your doorstep, ski touring in Narvik is mountain adventure in its most authentic form.
Ski holidays the Scandinavian way – stress-free, joy-filled, and expertly planned

Visit Polar Park - the world’s northernmost wildlife reserve - to see bears, wolves, lynx, and reindeer roaming in their natural habitat, or ride the historic Arctic Train along the Ofoten Railway, tracing fjords and frozen waterfalls en route to Sweden. For those seeking adventure, cross the tundra by snowmobile or glide through snow-dusted valleys on a dogsledding expedition led by a team of spirited huskies.
