A New Adventure Holiday In Norway For Men And Women

Skiing must have been invented in Norway or thereabouts as it originally was a form of transportation most suitable for the snowy slopes. Skis themselves have been dated as far back as two thousand years prior to the birth of Christ. Stone Age carvings on rocks discovered in the Scandinavian Peninsular give evidence of this.

A small group of eight people will journey by car to a variety of places and stay in pastoral accommodations all over western areas of Norway. The environment could not be any clearer as another traveller puts on her black helmet and looks to the glacier above. Quite a challenge to take up but she wont be alone.

Fashionable winter style is in order for the colder region of the glacier although sometimes it can be quite warm with the sun reflecting off the snow. Women can wear light rabbit poncho in stylish red or crimson which really stands out on the snow fields. Along with black knitted leggings and white silk scarf, a woman can still look and feel her best out in the terrain.

Guides for the tour will teach everyone how to handle the cross country trek on skis. Everyone puts on a giro ski helmet and proper ski gloves to make ready for the day’s tasks. Not so much in recent years but not too long ago either, the Norwegians were atop of the Olympic cross country skiing events. Most recently the ski jumps have been more focused upon.

Getting away from nature other beauties of Norway can be discovered. The Hanseatic Museum is a relic left over from the merchant days of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Being the only building that survived the fire of seventeen hundred and two, it is an architectural delight. Well worth the visit to see the days of old – very old – still surviving.

There are many water sports available for the person on an adventure holiday to pursue. Kayaking down the rivers or rafting down the rapids or perhaps staying near the coastline to take up some surfing lessons may be more to your taste in adventure. With so much to choose from a stay of two or three weeks could be what you’re after.

Another sporting adventure that is really popular in Norway is mountain biking. Taking a long ride through the mountainous terrain will certainly keep a person fit and healthy. It may also take the energy right out of you. Coming back to the cabin, a sit in front of the delonghi space heater will help take out some of the aches and pains from such exertion.
