Norway is a dream destination for ski tourers: proud mountains rise directly from the sea north of the Arctic Circle, in the Lyngen Alps or on the Lofoten Islands. After sweaty ascents, downhill runs with sensational views over the fjords beckon. Or would you prefer the glaciers in the interior of the country, for example in the Jotunheimen National Park? The choice is yours when it comes to ski touring in Norway!
