Read more about all the offers here (pdf-format).

Tromsø Adventure AS is a co-operation between Sommarøy Arctic Hotel, Malangen Brygger and Lyngsfjord Adventure. Tromsø Adventure seeks to be the leading commercial enterprise for adventure tourism in the Tromsø-region.

Lyngsfjord Adventure is kicking off the Summer season with two new exiting offers!

First up is the Husky Wagon Drive, where you have the opportunity to drive your own husky wagon pulled by 6 or 8 dogs, passing by the Lyngen Alps. Also, try out our Summer Fjord Fishing adventure on the fjord of Lyngen: Try your luck for Halibut, Cod, and other species.

Last summer season, River Canoeing down the beautfiul Signaldalen river, passing the mountain of Otertind (called Northern Europe's Matterhorn), and Glacier Hiking in the Steindalen valley, was our two most popular summer adventures. We hope guests in the Tromsø region will make enjoy these adventures this year as well.

Lyngsfjord Adventure welcomes you to a great experience in the land of the Midnightsun!

Malangen Brygger held an official opening of their hotel on the 27th of May. The hotel is situated a mere 70 km drive from the centre of Tromsø city. Lyngsfjord Adventure founder Hans-Olav Eriksen attended the opening ceremony, which included a ceremonial "baptism" of the hotel by Helicopter. The hotel has a capacity of 140 guests, and offers hiring of fishing boats, a great restaurant with focus on local produce, and a selection of cabins for hire (from modest to luxurious).

Lyngsfjord Adventure is a proud partner with Malangen Brygger, and is looking forward to successful cooperation for many years to come.

Lyngsfjord Adventure attended the Harstad Travel Seminar, April 28th. The seminar was aimed at further developing the Harstad region as an attractive tourist destination. Many key actors attended and presented, including Innovation Norway represented by Børge Hemmingsen.

Lyngsfjord Adventure founder Hans-Olav Eriksen held a presentation outlining the history and development of the company, focusing in particular on key experiences and criteria that could be relevant for operators in the Harstad region. We hope the seminar will be the start of increased success for our colleagues in what is undoubtedly one of Norway's most beautiful regions.

Last weekend a crew from the company Sweet Films completed a film shoot of winter adventures in Camp Tamok. The company will also perform a shoot of our summer adventures later in 2010.

Sweet Films will use the captured film in making a promotion movie for Lyngsfjord Adventure. The commercial will showcase the amazing scenery of the Lyngsfjord area, and give insight to the services we provide. It wil be used by our collaborating European tour operators for online promotion of our high quality Arctic adventures.

The production of the film is part of a marketing project made possible when Lyngsfjord Adventure won the national NORINT award in January 2010. This was an award for being the most innovative adventure destination in Norway, including price money of NOK 500.000 for the purpose of promoting and improving our services. (See earlier update about Lyngsfjord Adventure winning the NORINT award.)

Production will be completed in the autumn of 2010. The end result will also be released on our web pages. Remember to check our web site in October!

Lyngsfjord Adventure recently welcomed representatives from the Northern Norway Tourist Board to Camp Tamok. Representatives included NNTB Director of tourism Silje Brandvoll and leader of NNTB's Troms divison, Arne Trengereid, as well as representatives from all three northern counties (Nordland, Troms and Finnmark). The representatives got to experience a few of the Winter Adventures offered by Lyngsfjord Adventure first-hand, notably dog sledding and snowmobile safari. The winter conditions were excellent and spirits were high, see the pictures below!

We'd like to thank the Northern Norway Tourist Board for their visit and consideration.

Lyngsfjord Adventure recently welcomed municipality officers from Balsfjord municipality, Karin Berger, Hogne Eidissen, and Marion Ursfjord. The visitors enjoyed the wonderful winter conditions in Camp Tamok, as can be seen in the pictures below.

Representatives from Lyngsfjord Adventure recently visited the UK. The itiniary included a visit with VisitScotland and meeting with Activities Abroad in Newcastle.

Representatives Hans-Olav Eriksen and Jan-Are K. Johnsen met with Colin Houston and Robert Cullen from VisitScotland to learn more about their quality assurance system related to adventure tourism. The visit included participating in adventures offered in the Aberfeldy Perthshire region by companies Highland Safaris and Nae Limits. Lyngsfjord Adventure intends to utilize the quality assurance system in further developing the adventures we offer our guests. We would like to extend a warm thanks to Colin and Rob from VisitScotland for providing us with a thorough insight into the quality assurance system, as well as your hospitality and kindness. Thanks also to Donald Riddell and Andy Reed at Highland Safaris, our guide Tim at Nae Limits, Jane Grimley at Dewar's World of Whisky, and general manager (and certified "Bergenser"!) Carina Svensen at the Hotel Missoni Edinburgh.

Also met with representatives from Activities Abroad in Newcastle-upon-Tyne to discuss future cooperation and issues related to the quality of our services. We would like to recommend our UK-based guests to check-out Activities Abroad when planning a visit to North Norway and Lyngsfjord Adventure. Warm thanks to Alistair McLean, Barry Nolan, and Amy Griffiths for your hospitality and good discussions. I believe we can all recommend the nighttime view of the Tyne river from the Free Trade Inn!

Thanks again, we'll be back.
