Overview

Join us for a ride along Norway's longest historical postal route. While the route was operated in the 19th century 30 different reindeer herding families got their mail delivered to them along this road. You will get a glimpse of what it used to take to deliver a mail up here in the sometimes-harsh, rough conditions of the arctic. We will take you on journey, following part of the original route between Gargia and Suolovuopmi Mountain Lodge. This trip gives you an exhilarating way of exploring the arctic scenery just right outside our doorstep. While driving through the magical winter landscape, there is a possibility to see wildlife as well. Once we reach the highest point of the plains you will be impressed by the vast views that Europe’s largest mountain plateau has to offer.

Meeting points

Itinerary

We follow the old postal road up to the highest point of the plains. The temperature on the plateau can vary from a few plus degrees to well below freezing. We cannot promise you windless days and clear skies, but whatever the weather, the nature on the plateau will be just as magnificent and impressive.

Blue skies and sunshine

Published on Mar, 2024

We had a great time with our guide as we tracked across the tundra along an old postal route. The weather was really in our favor with amazing blue skies and only moderate winds. We hit some rough patches where the track had been torn up the day before, so we all (guide included) had to take turns navigating the rough areas and falling off our snowmobiles, but we got through it with the help of our awesome guide and his eternally positive attitude. This was a great way to spend a day experiencing three areas and learning some of the culture as well.
