Authentic Ice Fishing & Rod Crafting experience in Alta

Guided Ice Fishing and Rod Crafting in the Arctic

Snowshoe to a frozen lake for a peaceful Guided Ice Fishing and Rod Crafting experience, where you’ll fish with rods and warm up by the fire. While waiting for a catch, enjoy hot drinks and craft your own traditional fishing rod in the heart of the Arctic wilderness.

Step into the heart of the Arctic wilderness on snowshoes as we make our way across a quiet, snow-covered landscape to a frozen lake, surrounded by untouched nature and winter stillness. This is where your ice fishing adventure begins, an experience that blends tradition, craftsmanship, and calm.

Upon arrival, your guide will help drill holes through the thick ice, setting the stage for a peaceful fishing session. You’ll begin fishing, and while waiting for a bite beneath the surface, we gather around a crackling fire on the ice. With hot drinks in hand and the sound of the flames keeping us warm, you’ll be invited to craft your own simple fishing rod, using traditional techniques. This hands-on activity adds a creative, personal touch to the day, turning a moment of stillness into something meaningful.

Whether or not you catch a fish, the real reward is the experience itself: the silence of the Arctic, the warmth of the fire, and the joy of doing something with your hands in nature.

Guided and safe, this experience is suitable for beginners and those seeking an authentic, slow-paced connection to Arctic life.
