Dog Sledding
Some of Norway’s best sledding areas are found in the northern county of Finnmark, where endless, white plains drop to pine-forested valleys. Temperatures range from as low as -20C in January, to a relatively balmy 7C in May.
For the even more adventurous, cross the North Sea and head to Spitsbergen in the Svalbard archipelago, looking out for polar bears as you mush across arctic landscapes. Expect lows of -16C from January to March, warming to the low minuses in April and May. Visit between October and January to experience the polar nights and Northern Lights, or later in the season for the spring thaws and midnight-sun.
