Snowshoe & Viking Village

Woodland Trek to a Medieval Homestead Set out on an enchanting hike through the wilderness and visit a medieval Viking homestead. Embark on a scenic drive by motor coach to the tiny village of Tønsvika, where you will fasten the bindings on your snowshoes and set out on a journey through the wintry tundra. At the end of your 1½-mile trek, you will reach a clearing amid the dense trees and a courtyard where the Tønsviking Medieval Homestead awaits. Step back in time as you enter the Viking Age, where you will be warmly greeted by the homestead’s master builder. He will regale you with stories of life during the Viking era and explain more about the ancient building techniques used. You will then take your seat in the Viking Hall, where refreshments await. Enjoy a warming beverage and snacks, before heading back along the forest trail to your coach and your awaiting ship. * Demanding - Physically challenging activities, including extensive walks, hiking, riding, water sports, and high altitude activities.
