Tour highlights

  • Ride electric fatbikes across frozen lakes, snowy forest trails, and scenic viewpoints

  • Spot animal tracks in the snow, and possibly reindeer, along the way
  • Learn about local nature, wildlife, and everyday life in the Kirkenes borderland

What to expect?

Explore the Arctic winter landscape around Kirkenes by electric fatbike — the only place in East Finnmark where you can cycle through winter wilderness like this. This guided tour takes you through snowy forests, across frozen lakes and plateaus, and along quiet winter trails. The wide tires provide stability on snow and ice, while the electric assist helps you move through the terrain and handle small climbs. Keep in mind that it does require a good level of physical fitness — the electric assist helps, but riding on snow and ice is more demanding than a normal bike ride. Along the way, we share insights into local nature, wildlife, and everyday life in the Kirkenes region. You may come across animal tracks in the snow and, with a bit of luck, spot reindeer in the area. We make short stops at scenic spots for photos and a break, where you can enjoy a hot drink. This tour is a great match if you’re a cycling enthusiast looking for something special.

If you join an evening e-fatbike tour, the northern lights may dance above as you ride across the frozen landscape.
