Ski & Sail

It is a once-in-a-lifetime experience: Using a comfortable yacht as a mobile base camp, moving each day to drop you on the shore of the fjords, exploring the mountains on skis. With Ski & Sail we have combined the best of Ski Touring with the best of fjord landscape!

Ski & Sail is primarily for the ones that enjoy ski touring so much that you set a side several days for your ski holidays. Several companies in Fjord Norway has offers for Ski & Sail, bringing you safe to new destinations while you sleep. How about waking up to a new mountain every morning?

By boat you have fast and easy access to the many mountains of the region, and even better, you may ascend them from an angle with untracked snow. It is also a very eco-friendly way of travelling. If the conditions are right, you can attach the skis at waterlevel.

The concept of sail and ski started out in the Lyngen Alps in Northern Norway. A fantastic area, but it is harder to get to and the weather can be harsher than in the Fjord Norway region. Several guiding companies in Fjord Norway have established ski and sail product over the last few years, and international guests and tour operators are starting to discover the qualities of this unique skiing experience. Please do also note that a similar product is also available in summer, then replacing skiing with hiking.

If you want, there is also opertunities for staying the nights and use a hotel as your base. You will then be transported to new peaks every day by a local guide.
