Few people venture through the Stabbursdalen valley. Perhaps we will encounter a musher with their dog team or a hunter. Or maybe a Sami reindeer herder – or no one at all. This place is home to birds of prey, grouse and wolverines – and silence. Facts - Total of approx. 100 km as the crow flies without prepared trails (16-24 km daily) - Six days/five nights, of which we spend the first in Aurora Canvas Dome at GLØD, then three nights in tents and one night at the mountain lodge Jotka Fjellstue - Good food based on local produce - Sauna at Jotka Fjellstue - Each participant pulls their personal gear by pulk (small expedition sled). Bags and harness are included - Mountain skis and good ski boots are essential (may be rented from us) - Sleeping bag/sleeping mattress designed for temperatures of down to 25 ˚C - Forbes travel guide ranked the Finnmarksvidda and Stabbursdalen as one of the five best places in the world for cross-country ski treks - See photos from previous trips Stay overnight in tents We spend the three first nights in expedition tents, so you will need a sleeping bag and two sleeping mattresses (preferably one foam pad and one inflatable) designed for low temperatures. The comfort temperature should be down to minus 25 ˚C. If we are lucky enough to find one of the valley’s unknown gems, small huts built of turf and wood by hunters long ago, we can spend the night or eat dinner or lunch there. Mountain lodges On this ski expedition, we spend the last night at one of the traditional mountain lodges on the Finnmarkvidda mountain plateau, Jotka Fjellstue. If you wish, you can also enjoy a relaxing hot sauna on arrival. We will also eat dinner here and breakfast the next morning. The mountain lodge offers basic accommodation in cabins and dormitories with 2-6 bunks. Huskies We are joined on the expedition by huskies to pull sleds carrying shared equipment and supplies such as food, burners and fuel. They may carry more depending on the conditions. These social dogs love going on expeditions, and nothing makes them happier than heading into the wilderness with their best friends. This is sociable and pleasant for all concerned. Internet, phone coverage and electricity From after lunch on day one, we will be without telephone coverage for much of the trip. However, Jotka Fjellstue has good mobile coverage and electricity to charge your phone.
Jour 1
As we start our ski expedition at 8:30 on day one, it’s natural for participants from afar to arrive the day before. If you require accommodation in Alta, we can provide good alternatives. A planning meeting will be held at GLØD Headquarters at 16:00 (4 p.m.) on the day prior to departure to look at maps and the route, go through the expedition plan and the weather forecast, etc. We will check the gear and any supplements and hand out any equipment you rented. We will also serve soup and bread.
Jour 2
We are transported from Alta to Okselv in Sennaland, where we start the ski trek. The terrain rises slightly as we head southwards. After lunch we cross into national park and will spend the next three days inside the park boundary. The exact route will be determined based on the prevailing weather and snow conditions, but it is often advisable to stay above the treeline. After skiing approx. 21 km, we stop for the day around lake Bokhosjavri. Weather permitting, we will consider pitching the tents on the frozen lake. If so, we will see if the fish are biting, some hopefully you will have fresh water and fresh Arctic char!
Jour 3
After breakfast, we put on our skis and aim to cross the Stabburselva river, which flows at the bottom of the valley. We ski eastwards, initially downhill and then gently uphill towards the mighty Gaissene, the mountains in the eastern part of the national park. We will aim to find a nice and sheltered campsite among the splendour of 1,000 m high peaks. Skiing distance today: approx. 20 km.
Jour 4
We awake to the sun shining at the top of the Finnmarkvidda’s highest mountain, Cohkarássa. Hopefully, there will be little wind and good visibility so we can enjoy the day as we head southward between the feet of these 1,000 m high giants. We will pay Skouvgilrássa, Ceakkojohrássa, Oppardasrássa and Vuorji today. After about 22 km in changing terrain, we set up camp at the real Finnmarksvidda mountain plateau, in the north end of Iesjavri, Finnmarks largest lake. We pitch our tents and cook a good dinner. We relax to the sound of the whistle of the kettle boiling on the primus stove and the after-dinner coffee in the wilderness will seldom have tasted better.
Jour 5
We are in “open landscape” and after getting wind of Lisa’s excellent service at the Jotka Fjellstue mountain lodge, about 18 km away, we head westwards. We catch a glimpse of the Finnmarksvidda’s largest lake, Iesjavri, to the south, while in front of us lie the nice wooded areas surrounding the mountain lodge. Far to the north we can glimpse a snowmobile, maybe an angler trying his luck in a fishing lake only he knows about. In the late afternoon we arrive at Jotka where a hot sauna awaits us!
Jour 6
The last leg is about 16 km, initially up through the birch forest before we are again above the treeline. We ski out to the majestic Alta Canyon and admire the view. Our ski trek ends at Øvre Stilla at the top of the Tverrelvdalen valley, where we will be picked up and driven back to Alta. We aim to be in Alta about 15:30 (3:30 p.m.). You can enjoy a sauna and shower at GLØD HQ. It will be possible to catch flights south after 18:00 (6 p.m.). For those who are not in a hurry to get to the airport, we will arrange a group dinner in Alta to round off the trip properly. We can also help you to arrange accommodation in Alta, if you wish.
