SKI AND SAIL ØKSFJORD
SKI AND SAIL AS IT SHOULD BE, NO ROADS, NO PEOPLE AND WILD MOUNTAINS YOU CAN ONLY REACH BY BOAT!
DATES FOR 2024: 23-27 of April
A ski and sail experience as it should be!
Teaming up with aegirexpeditions we have found a pure and unique ski and sail trip in the wild mountains in the very north of Norway.
The area is the Øksfjord mountains, north of Lyngen close to Alta.
We want you to have a personal and relaxed experience where we all act as a team on the sailboat Popeye. We cook together and help out with the daily work assigned by our Captain – Cpt Crocs. Our reward will be pureness – both on land and on the ocean. This trip is new for 2024 and for now we only offer this at the end of April.
There is great flexibility to make this trip your own – from cooking the food to planning the next ski run – there isn`t a set plan and that`s what will make this trip unique.
You will share a room (double room) and we will in general be close to each other – so it`s a great benefit to be used to being close to other people and helping out with general tasks such as cooking. It´s recommended to do this as a group that know each other from before.
DATES FOR 2024: 23-27 of April
