Arctic Center

Vision

“Arctic Center shall be a year-round, activity-based tourism destination of international standard based on the qualities of the Arctic.”

Dagens Næringsliv, D2 magazine, November 2014: “Only a semi-annual alpine ski resort deprives Tromsø of the title as Norway’s most complete ski destination,” states the article. “No large cities can compete with Tromsø when it comes to summit ski climbs. The city is surrounded by mountains that tourists travel from afar to experience. The combination of urban life and pristine mountain makes the Paris of the North the summit ski capital of Norway. If the plans for a new ski resort on the island of Kvaløya with a vertical drop of more than 800 metres is realized, it will put Tromsø in a unique position as the ski city.”

TROMSØ NEEDS MORE TOURISM PRODUCTS

Tromsø is experiencing growth, as is the flow of tourists to the city. We are seeking partners who see a potential in Tromsø, and want to play a part in lifting the city and the tourism industry to new heights.

WINTER IS FOR EVERYONE! ARCTIC CENTER WILL OFFER TRAILS OF EVERY LEVEL: GREEN, BLUE, RED AND BLACK BEGINNERS OR PROFESSIONALS CHILDREN, YOUTH AND ADULTS

Vertical drop: 780 m Number of ski trails: 13 Combined length of groomed ski trails: 30 km Longest continuous ski run: 6 km off-piste skiing on ungroomed slopes Northern Norway’s best ski park

The slopes satisfy FIS’ requirements for World Cup competitions in all disciplines
