A unique skiing experience in Arctic

TanishkaGoyal, Mar 2023
A beautiful setup in the Arctic region, the course is setup for the beginners with well laid skiing tracks. And also have some small slopes in between once you get used to it. Guide was amazing, you get to learn a lot about Tromso. All gears are provided and also some refreshments.
