We prioritize small group sizes to ensure a more personalized experience. Our guided hikes typically accommodate 8 to 12 participants at a time. This allows our guides to cater to individual needs and create a more engaging atmosphere. Smaller groups also contribute to a more immersive nature experience and minimize impact on the delicate Arctic environment.
We recommend wearing layered clothing suitable for changing weather conditions, sturdy hiking boots, and bringing essentials such as water, snacks, sun protection, and a camera to capture the breathtaking scenery. Our guides will provide any additional gear necessary for the hike and will advise you on specific equipment based on the type of hike you choose.
