Winter Wilderness Challenge Get a real taste of expedition life in Iceland’s remote Westfjords — one immersive day designed as preparation for longer journeys in Arctic conditions. Far from the crowds, you’ll glide across frozen fjords on cross-country skis, pulling a pulka sleigh just like the classic polar explorers. Along the way, your certified guides will introduce you to essential winter travel and survival skills, including: Nordic skiing techniques & pulka management Using winter camping equipment Building natural snow shelters Fire-making workshop Outdoor cooking Other core expedition skills At day’s end, you’ll return with your guides to the charming town of Ísafjörður. For those seeking a deeper challenge, there is the option to spend the night in the camp you’ve built — gaining first-hand experience of true winter camping — before returning to Ísafjörður independently the following morning. Led by professional, experienced guides, this one-day expedition is a rare chance to embrace the solitude and beauty of the Icelandic winter while learning practical polar skills that prepare you for real expeditions.
