At the geographical location of the Snow Hotel, you experience the Polar Nights each winter from around mid-November through mid-January. That means there is no sun, only darkness. This contributes to the mysterious atmosphere of staying in a building crafted out of snow.

A totally unforgettable experience awaits you on the frozen fjords of Kirkenes. This is your chance to catch, learn how to cook, and most importantly EAT this mysterious creature.

You will be taken by snowmobile sledge (an experience in itself) to a beautiful farmhouse by the lake. It is here by a cosy log fire that your King Crab meal awaits. Although presentation is simple, the superb, white leg meat and claws with their particularly juicy and naturally sweet taste make this meal in a league of its own.
