Snowmobile Hunting The Northern Lights - Departure 21:00 Kirkenes
★ 4.5 · 1505 reviewsBy The Arctic Resort Company AS


Begin with hotel pickup in Kirkenes at around 21:00, then a short 15‑minute ride to the camp at Snow Resort Kirkenes, where your guide outfits you with warm overall, boots, mittens, balaclava and helmet. You’ll receive a full safety briefing and a hands‑on training session in how to drive the snowmobile, so even first‑timers feel comfortable.
Once ready, you’ll set off on the frozen fjord and through the wilderness towards the Pasvik Valley, taking turns driving the snowmobile two‑seated style. Along the way there will be photo stops and moments to simply take in the stillness of the Arctic night.
The tour lasts approx. 2 hours (from ~21:00) and includes transfers to/from selected hotels in Kirkenes (Thon or Scandic) or starting at the Snow Resort Kirkenes if you are staying there.
Highlights
- Drive a snowmobile yourself (sharing with a partner) through Arctic wilderness.
- Guided search for the northern lights under minimal light‑pollution skies.
- Full cold‑weather gear and hotel pickup/return handled for you.

- Professional guide
- Snowmobile (two per machine, sharing)
- Warm clothing: overall, boots, mittens, balaclava, helmet
- Hotel pickup and drop‑off from Kirkenes (Thon or Scandic) or meeting at Snow Resort Kirkenes if staying there
Good to know
Minimum age to drive: 18 years and must hold a valid category B driving licence. Passengers: minimum age 10 years. If you prefer to drive your own snowmobile alone (single supplement), price is 1.5× the standard rate.
What to bring: Warm layers under the provided suit, your driver’s licence if you’ll be driving. Note: Northern lights depend on weather and solar activity, so sightings cannot be guaranteed.
Physical difficulty: Moderate — you’ll be driving a snowmobile in cold conditions. Good to have basic mobility.
