This was an AMAZING experience! We did the tour in heavy winds and snowfall - and although physically demanding, it was thoroughly enjoyable. The guides took time to explain everything in details, and were very patient and encouraging while belaying.

Guides were incredible and really lovely. It looks like an insane thing to do and like you would need experience. You don't. Give it a go 😀.

Most memorable part was almost giving up halfway but then pushing through with help from our guide’s advice and motivation! We made it to the top!

You have to try this!

Helena_B, Feb 2023

Probably one of the most unique experiences ever, would highly recommend to try. Felt completely safe with our guide. It’s a small one person business who takes small groups, which makes it feel quite special.

An exhausting but very rewarding experience

Isabel_C, Dec 2022

The guide is very friendly. He also gave us different tips to climb and encouraged us on our way up. The climbing experience is also suitable for beginners.

Super climb with friendly guide

Bonnie_E, Dec 2022

Super guide. Very friendly and knowledgeable. He was helpful and we had a lot of fun. I would recommend this for first timers. Very understanding for those not that confident. Thanks very much for our trip!

Must-Do in Abisko Adventures!

Andreea_C, Nov 2022

I never thought that I would go ice climbing in my lifetime - but figured I would at least try it with my first trip to the Nordic countries...and it was the greatest decision of the trip. Aril was fantastic at explaining all the intricacies of ice climbing and he was incredibly patient while climbing. He helped to guide me all the way up and I felt incredibly safe the entire time. He also took some incredible shots at various angles throughout the climb and afterwards that made it seem like I was a professional climber. Lastly, I also want to say thank you as I was the only one in the group and Aril still did the tour - best VIP experience ever. Highly recommend to anyone who is seeking a bit of a thrill and adventure in Abisko!
