Tours on your own

Vannøya is a fantastic place to enjoy walks and experiences on your own. Local enthusiasts have worked in collaboration with the Ishavskystens friluftsråd to mark and prepare hiking trails on Vannøya. Here are some suggestions for some magical trips you won’t forget…

• The coastal paths on Vannøya – Queen Sonja officially opened these in 2012, and you can follow them all the way between Vannavalen and Hamre (23 km in total, or 28 km if you go via Slettnes). The coastal paths also take you into the Skipsfjorden landscape conservation area.

• To the top of Karlsøy – on Vannøya there are tours for everyone who enjoys walking the mountains – children, young and old, fit and beginners.
• Here are maps of hiking destinations

Whale watching

When the herring arrive in the fall, the humpback whale and killer whale are never far away. The whale will give you an experience you’ll never forget! Sometimes it just lies calmly at sea level and breathes, it is curious and often comes to the boat to study you. At other times, it hunts diligently for herring and comes up from the sea, often 10 at a time, and eats herring with its enormous mouth.

We take you on a whale watching safari where you can experience these powerful animals up close.

• Duration approx. 4-5 hours
• Put on warm underwear, warm shoes, hat and mittens. We’ll dress you up in a warm life suit.
• Price: 2500 nok per pers. (min.4 pers.)
