Whilst your guides will consider the prevailing weather & snow conditions when deciding where to go each day, there are a number of routes that guests can nominate to undertake each day.Your guides set the pace and rhythm of the ski program so that everyone enjoys it to the fullest.

Sigló 360°

The Sigló 360° trip will take you around the peaks at Sigló, including The Horse, Priest’s Peak and Tempest Peak. On this tour the aim is for more ski-time and less fly-time.

V Valley Trip

Ski five different valleys on the same day. On the V valley trip the group will go skiing in five different valleys, located centrally on the peninsula. Troll Peninsula has plenty of beautiful valleys and your guide will pick the five best locations for each trip.

Three Fjord Trip

Ski three different fjords on the same day. The Three Fjord trip includes skiing in Siglufjörður, Héðinsfjörður and Ólafsfjörður, three of the best-known fjords on the Troll Peninsula.

From Summit to Sea

Ski from the mountaintops, all the way down to the seashore. You will be able to chase powder lines all day that go all the way to the shoreline, as many of the mountains in the north plunge down to the sea with almost no coastline in between. When skiing down these mountains, you can’t go any further than the sea, so we’ll stop there! At the end of the day there will be a beer and barbecue on the beach.

Advanced routes (additional fees apply)

Gold Coast Exploration

Fly across the long and narrow Eyjafjörður to explore some new lines at Látraströnd, known as the Gold Coast! The somewhat longer flying time will be made well worth it, as we ski down powdery slopes turned golden in the northern sun.

This loop runs either clockwise or counterclockwise around the Troll Peninsula mountain range and can easily be accomplished in one day. The Troll Ronda is a circuit that offers the dedicates skier an opportunity to explore the Troll massif on the peninsula in-depth.
