Kirkenes

Ice Fishing with Expert

With thousands of lakes throughout the unspoilt nature and the Arctic sea at our doorstep, Kirkenes is one of the best places in Norway for fishing trips. On the Snowhotel guided ice fishing trip, we will dress you up warmly, and head out by snowmobile sleigh to the frozen fjord.

This tour is by Snowmobile, and you will ride in the sled.

Our fisherman/guide will pick you up at your hotel, and take you on a 15 minute ride to the Snowhotel Kirkenes camp outside Kirkenes.

Here your guide will help you dress and give you a security instruction, before getting on the snowmobile sled. Then the journey starts and we drive out on the fjord ice to find the best ice fishing spots.

Once arrived to the fishing spot, your fishing guide will drill a hole through the thick ice as you prepare your fishing gear. Then all that remains is to sink your line down through the fjord ice and wait for the bite.

In the fjord there are numerous types of fish, we have even caught salmon! But the most common catch is cod - Norway's number one fish and as important to economy as oil or hydropower.

If you are lucky, your guide will cook your catch for you after the tour. After the tour our driver will take you back to your hotel in Kirkenes.
