Snowshoeing in Voss

What will you experience?
Snowshoeing on mount Hanguren near Voss Resort is an non-technical and family friendly activity. If you are able to walk, you are able to use snowshoes! The friendly, forested terrain offer plenty of opportunities to play in the snow or slide down one of the small cliffs we will encounter as we move through the deep snow. It is quite common to find tracks of wild animals such as grouse, hare, snow mice or foxes.

Snowshoeing is an excellent choice if you would like a real winter experience in beautiful nature – without skis. We only take small groups on these trips. This makes it easier for you to enjoy the scenery, get to know your guide and increases the overall quality of your trip. Small group sizes also makes it easy for us to adapt the trip to special requests or wishes within the group. To ensure a comfortable trip even in cold conditions, we provide extra warm boots and clothing to all participants at no extra cost.

The gondola ride is an experience in its own right. It offers a spectacular introduction to the trip and the mountains surrounding Voss. We exit 820 meters above sea level straight into the cool, crisp mountain scenery that will make you appreciate the warm clothes your guide provided.

Fancy a bit of knowledge regarding outdoor life in the Norwegian winter mountains? How to make a fire with only one match? Or maybe how to cook a tasty meal on the bonfire? Your guide is more than happy to tell you about the local nature and how to survive in it and keep your temperature at a comfortable level as you move through the frozen landscape.

Your guide will bring locally sourced food to cook on the bonfire in the sheltered mountain forest we will walk through. Near the heat of the flames you will find peace of mind while enjoying the silence of the nature, far away from the hassles of everyday life.

We return the same way we came, enjoying the comfort of the gondola that takes us back down to Voss centre.
