The varied terrain, from open slopes to forested areas, will challenge and excite both seasoned and new ski tourers alike. We return to Tromsø in the evening to rest up for the next day.

The adventure in Norway with Mapo Tapo was amazing. Everything was well organised, the accommodations were spacious and nice, and the guide very very good. We skied everyday, and even when the weather wasn’t the best, our guide managed to find good itineraries to still enjoy the powder and have fun.

I went to a ski-touring trip to Lyngen Alps with Mapo Tapo and the experience was amazing! We were slightly unlucky with the weather but we managed to ski every day with very good snow, also thanks to our super UIAGM guide Fabrizio always finding the right tour given the conditions and the group skills (in any case we got 3 days of sun and they were amazing). The rest of the logistics was also very well planned by Mapo Tapo. The house where we stayed was in a perfect location with respect to the start of the tours, it was modern, big enough and it had a sauna!! The cars were big enough to fit all our bags and ski equipment and they were adequate for the Norwegian road conditions (lots of ice and snow on the road). Overall it was a great experience and also Mapo Tapo’s support was on point. Truly recommended!! Maybe I’ll go to ski in Japan with Mapo Tapo next year :)

Ce voyage était extraordinaire. Il a dépassé toutes mes attentes. Nous avons eu beaucoup de chance avec la météo : ciel bleu sur toute la semaine. Le guide a trouvé de la super neige froide et vierge. Le logement était incroyable. Enfin j'ai eu la chance de rencontrer de super personne, passionné de ski. Le groupe avait le même niveau et nous nous sommes super bien entendu.
