Vilmarkssenter
| |||
Tromsø Vilmarkssenter is one of Norways largest and most established adventure companies. It is a family-run business founded by Tove Sorenson, who has a proven background in outdoor adventures and husky care, as a 19-time competitor in the Finnmarkslopet and also the Alaskan Iditarod. The Vilmarkssenter has a well-earned reputation for its hospitality and has been welcoming guests in search of the Aurora for many years, and also providing them with tasty Norwegian and Sami dishes. They have now embraced innovation in their new Glamping Cabins (there will soon be 4 of these available) which not only provide a cosy base for guests but also allow them to make friends with the one or two huskies who will be their bunk-mates. Each cabin has a comfortable kennel built on the side, so although the huskies are tethered they have access to the outside and also the warm inside area which shares a transparent wall with the cabin. Guests can interact with the huskies outside the cabins but also see them through the glass viewing panel inside. Meals at the Vilmarkssenter will be served at the traditional Gamme hut which also serves as an Aurora Camp. Please note that the Cabins here are not ensuite, with toilets located about 40 metres away. Currently, there are no showers on site so we recommend using these at the Clarion Edge before setting off for your wilderness experience. | |||
