Blue fjords and powder snow in this amazing ski touring trip in Sogn og Fjordane (West Norway), together with Pawel, an IFMGA mountain guide.
Scandinavian Mountains
+1 Day
Jan - Apr, Dec
Do you dream to ski in perfect powder snow with incredible views of blue water fjords? This is the ideal trip for you! Join me for a few days of ski touring in Norway, discovering Sogn og Fjordane.
Sogn og Fjordane is a region of West Norway. One side flows to the sea and the other one is surrounded by the Jotunheimen mountains, the highest in the country. Furthermore, this area has also glacier Jostedalbreen, which is the largest in continental Europe.
All this region receives a lot of snowfall during the year, so it is well-known for its powder snow.
You can join me for a custom trip, from 2 to 7 days (or even more if you want to!).
This trip is ideal for people in a good physical condition, with some basic ski touring knowledge. We can go from 700 m up to 1500 m of height each day!
Besides, we can choose between a round trip in some classic routes in Sogn og Fjordane or exploring only one specific region. Every day, we’ll be out from 5 to 10 hours.
Alpine landscapes, fjords and great powder snow: the perfect combination for an outstanding adventure! So please contact me if you want to organize a ski touring trip in Norway. I’ll help you plan the best trip for you!

Mountain Guide
I am a fully certified IFMGA guide since 2012. I have, however, mastered my climbing and skiing skills for many years before taking up guiding. I have participated in numerous climbing expeditions not only to the wild mountains of Caucasus (which I have gotten to know pretty well), but also to Nepal, Alps and have extensively climbed in many Norwegian areas. In recent years I have been resident in Norway, and I co-operate with my friends at Lyngen Outdoor Center as their chief mountain guide.

Fantastic trip. Guide was experienced and friendly. He took us to some amazing sites where we learned the basics of ice climbing and using crampons as well as using ice axis to climb and be safe on the mountain. We did a snow hike up Gaustatoppen which was an environment we’ve never been too and was an incredible experience. Wish we could have stayed longer! Trip was weather dependent as with anything but that didn’t take away a huge amount of things to do. Rjukan is a wonderful town with gorgeous scenery. Huge thank you to Pawel for this experience!

Pawel was a fantastic guide, I couldn’t have hoped for anything better for my first trip ice climbing. In particular I was very impressed with his ability to make sure that I was always challenged but never entirely out of my depth and his coaching helped me to develop without overloading me with information.

The most fantastic day with the most helpful, skilled and friendly guide and instructor! We had a really wonderful and exciting day, learned a great deal and enjoyed the truly spectacular scenery. Pawel was extraordinarily supportive, patient and impressive in his sharing of knowledge and for making it a great day all around. Big thanks and we look forward to the next time!

We were 3 guys heading out for our first time iceclimbling, and it was one of the best trip either of us had ever been on. Friendly and attentive guide, who clearly focused on our needs. We felt very safe throughout and our only regret is that we didn't have more days. Big thanks to Pawel for being a terrific guide.
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
