Tromsø Outdoor Team

It is a pleasure every day to send our many guests into the wonderful scenery we have here in the Tromsø area.

You will usually find me in the office at Sjøgata 14, but sometimes I'm lucky to be allowed to guide some trips and activities. I live on top of Tromsøya, and thrive both in and outside the paths in open-air areas surounding my house.

When I'm not at work I spend a lot of time with my wife on trips in the majestic mountains around Tromsø, organizing my stamp collection, in addition to attending meetings, and as a leader on child and youth activities in my church.

Hi! It is me who takes care of big part of administration work behind Tromsø Outdoor.

Sometimes I reply your e-mails regarding reservations, activities, skiing, cycling, weather and everything else that is important for you!
I used to get the change to guide some of our hikes and snowshoe trips or to help you with planning your activities in our rental center. These days I spend time taking care of our work planning, website, social media, booking system, accounting, hiring, meetings and work on local projects. My best skill is maintaining everything at the same time and keeping over 550 products Tromsø Outdoor has in offer under control ;)

I had a long journey to get to Tromsø – from Poland, to Australia, then to Western Norway, and finally here. Having that and many other travels in my heart – I find Tromsø one of the best places in the world to visit and live in. I enjoy sharing my love of this beautiful region with all the people who come to visit us. I started guiding when I was nineteen years old and now at Tromsø Outdoor in 2014 I have made it part of my work and every day life!

My free time is filled with friends, dancing, cycling, swimming, skiing, snowboarding, hiking, photography, books, travels and learning Norwegian.

Hi, my name is Sascha and I have been working at Tromsø Outdoor since 2014 year.

In winter I mainly guide the snowshoe and cross-country skiing-trips. Sometimes you can also find me in the rental center and there I will help you with any of your requests. I have also main responsibility for training all Tromsø Outdoor guides and ensuring that all tours are conducted in safe manner at all the times.  

I love being outdoors in the winter, to be active, lighting up a fire and relaxing. In summer I fill my time with hiking, whitewater-kayaking, canoing, and fishing. For many years I worked in the summer as a kayak guide in Sweeden and Germany.  

For me its a great pleasure to talk about the wildlife and nature of Northern Norway and show you our way of life here in the Arctic!

See you soon in the beautiful area of Troms!

Hi there! I'm Sylwia and you will find me at the Tromsø Outdoor activity and rental center at Sjøgata 14 every day, both in the summer and in the winter.

I will be happy to welcome you here, help you to find the right equipment for your personal Tromsø adventure, and to provide you with all sorts of information. It might also be that I take you on a snowshoe trip through the snowy forest area on top of the island since I work as a guide as well.

I moved to Tromsø in 2010 and have been working as a city guide for several years now. I very much enjoy the many faces of Tromsø: its breathtaking nature, exciting history, and multicultural society - I am happy to have found my home here! I spent much of my time with long walks through nature in each of our beautiful seasons but I also enjoy hiking, snowboarding, cycling and kayaking whenever I get the opportunity. My adventure with Tromsø Outdoor has begun in 2016.

Since I love travelling, exploring new places, and getting to know different people and their culture, I very much enjoy helping our visitors so that they too can have a wonderful Tromsø experience.

Hey there!

I am Mauricio, a young person from the centre of Spain, more precisely from a small city called Soria.  
Mountains have always been my passion and I feel attracted to them. In June 2018 I achieved my university degree in tourism, in the English language, that I studied for three years in Madrid and for one year in Finland.

It is there in the Northern Finland, where I got to know and experience the northern European way of living. This has given me many work opportunities in different sub-sectors of the tourism and I get to discover what I really like and enjoy, which is guiding.

In the mountains, I have always been doing different sports since I was a little one. Nowadays I spend my time running, skiing, climbing or snowshoeing.  
Although, I am always looking forward to getting to know other means to move around them. Also, I have work experience in the rivers kayaking.

Another big hobby of mine is travelling and speaking foreign languages, as I believe is a great way to put in perspective the way we do things.

Guiding has always been a passion; get to interact with other people that might have the same interest than me. I will be very happy to share my knowledge with the people around me in Tromso.

I look forward to meeting you on a tour or at the Tromso Outdoor rental centre!

I grew up in Estonia, where I participated in winter sports from an early age. I started as a cross country skier as a young child, competed in cross country skiing races and later used my experience as a ski instructor for many years while studying at university.

In 2016, I moved to Norway to pursue a Master's degree in health science. It was here that I found a passion for ski mountaineering and touring.

When I am not skiing, you can find me in the workshop making sure that the skis and gear are in excellent condition and performing at their best.

I enjoy my job, as it is truly rewarding - you get to meet new people, watch them improve and help them reach their goals and enhance their experiences.

As an avid outdoor enthusiast, I like to spend my free time in the mountains: skiing, running or going on climbing trips my girlfriend ...and every once in a while capture some of those memorable moments on my camera.

Lena Dahl is our IFMGA/UIAGM/IVBV mountain guide who offers guided ski touring trips in the

mountains of Tromsø. She has been working as a mountain guide since 2003. She qualified as an

international certified IFMGA mountain guide in 2014. Her motto is 'safety first'. With her local

knowledge about the snow and avalanche danger, she will give you a safe and unforgettable

adventure in the snowy landscapes of Kvaløya or Ramfjorden, just a short drive outside Tromsø. She

knows how to choose a mountain that fits the group’s expectations and ski level.

I grew up at the Varangerfjord in east Finnmark, and have lived in Tromsø since 1992. My education and background are police and military, which has taught me to carry out outdoor assignments in difficult weather and harsh situations. From childhood I have been doing outdoor activities summer and winter, whatever the weather. My passion is planning and conducting trips where it is just me, my wife, nature and the weather. Moving from flat Varanger to Tromsø made me very familiar with mountains, especially around Tromsø.

I would describe myself as an all-rounder. I have practiced swimming, orienteering, military sports, snowshoeing, XC-skiing, back country skiing, ski mountaineering, hiking and backpacking. Further fishing in mountain lakes, streams and rivers, and winter fishing on ice, as well as hunting. I also did summer and winter biking for a few years. I like to prepare and maintain my skis, bikes and equipment myself.

I am also interested in good meals, culture and sports. That is why Tromsø is a fantastic city to live in. We have a very good selection of local food, culture as a music and film festival, and of course the mountains and the sea right outside the door.

I look forward to help in promoting Northern Norway and Tromsø in particular through Tromsø Outdoor.
