Norwegian Freetour & SkiAlp all times classic known since end of 19th century!
Hardangerfjord is the Mecca of ski touring and free touring in Western Norway.
Scenic slopes, fjords, the Folgefonna glacier and the Rosendal Alps make this one of the most beautiful ski touring and splitboarding areas in Europe. Each route begins with skinning up from a mountain pass accessible by car (800–1100 m a.s.l.) and leads to peaks reaching 1500–1700 m, allowing you to fully focus on the essence – long, wild descents.
On site, you’ll be guided by local Norwegian guides certified by Nortind, who know the terrain like the back of their hand. The Hardanger region guarantees excellent snow conditions until May – an ideal choice for spring touring!
This trip is for those who want to feel freedom and the power of nature – no compromises, no crowds, just you and the Norwegian mountains under the care of local guides.
