Outdoor adventures in the Norwegian snow
Travel to Alta during the short winter days, the period when humpback whales and orcas come to feast on herring in the Norwegian fjords. Witness this spectacular spectacle under the bright colors of polar daylight. Undertake adventurous outdoor activities and indulge in the crunching white powder snow. Once darkness falls, it's time to look for aurora borealis dancing in the sky. Do you view the magical northern lights from your bed in an "aurora dome" or do you prefer to spend the night in an igloo hotel? Where the world can't find you...
