Caption: Enjoy the festival program and the local winter activities available. We will help you get out in the ski slopes, cross country trails or maybe try the Norwegian “spark” (kick-sled) or snow shoes. Or maybe an Alaskan Husky Dog Sledding Tour on the iced Ustedalsfjord is more tempting? Up Norway travellers will be invited to take part in ice harvesting and see how natural ice is turned into real instruments.
