The programme

Grab your poles to explore Tromsø with the rhythm of Nordic walking that brings you into harmony with its nature and views, sustainably.
If genuine Norwegians are so fond of this activity, it’s because of its many benefits: it’s a full-body workout, relaxes the mind and lets you discover the land, step after step.
You’ll find yourself all in, thanks to a guide who’s an expert in this sport and the location’s natural treasures, like the world’s northernmost botanical garden.
This green oasis awaits you with its collections of plants, polar and alpine flowers that grow in the extreme climates of the coldest regions of the planet. Have you already gazed on the extremely rare Himalayan blue poppy?
Keep the pace as far as the Prestvannet lake, at the highest point of the center of Tromsø, surrounded by a nature reserve far from the lights of the city.
It’s from here that you can relax yourself while you drink in the crisp northern air: now you know what it means to revitalize like a true Norwegian!
