Guided Trips and Excursions

Manshausen and the Steigen area have a vast range of opportunities for everyone. To maximize your stay, we now have our own full-time guides. They can help, suggest, guide and accompany you on everything from a leisure boat tour to a real climb.

 

Nordskot Traverse

This exciting and semi-technical trip starts with a hike to the top of Sørskottind where we are rewarded by one of the best views of the islands surrounding Manshausen. We then put on our climbing equipment, and rappel about 5 meters to access the narrow ridgeline that you can see from Nordskot. Walking in a rope team, we have fantastic views on either side of the ridge before descending to Ersvika and a return trip by boat (or car) to Manshausen.

Time: 7-9 hours Difficulty: Medium/Hard
Price: 1-2 people 5.000 NOK, 3+ people 2.500 NOK per person
