Arctic Char Fishing in the Arctic Wilderness
Some fishing lakes have never seen a fly.
Deep within the Finnmark plateau and in the border mountains towards Finland lie lakes that aren't on any map. No trails lead there. No cabins. No other fishermen.
We take you there – and for a few days, the lake is yours.
The Experience
Where No One Else Goes
There are thousands of mountain lakes in Northern Norway. Most are accessible – with enough time, fitness, and willingness to carry a pack for days.
But some lakes lie so far in that even the most determined hikers never reach them. The terrain is too demanding. The distances too great.
That's where we go.
Here we set up camp by the water's edge. And here you get something rare: days of fishing in complete silence, without another person in sight.
Two Ways to Get There
Choose What Suits You
We offer two options to reach the same hidden lakes. Both give you access to fishing waters where arctic char live undisturbed, year after year.
Helicopter
For those who want the shortest way in.
The helicopter takes you directly to the water's edge. No walking, no carrying. You land, set up camp, and fish.
Suited for:
- Those who want to maximize time at the lake
- Groups where some have physical limitations
- Those who want the most spectacular arrival
Helicopter is weather-dependent and must be booked well in advance. The price reflects this.
What most guests choose
ATV + Hiking
For those who want a real wilderness experience – at half the price.
We transport all your gear with our 6x6 ATV. You walk the final kilometers to the lake yourself – light, without a pack.
When you arrive, camp is ready. Tent, equipment, everything you need. You've just warmed up and are ready to fish.
Suited for:
- Those who like to use their body but don't want to carry heavy loads
- Those who appreciate walking into the landscape, not just landing in it
- Those who want the same lakes, same fishing – but smarter price
The walk in becomes part of the experience. You see the terrain change. You feel the silence settle. When you finally see the lake open up before you, you've earned it.
“We considered helicopter but chose to walk in. Best decision. That hour hiking through the plateau – without a pack, just us and the landscape – was an experience in itself. And the fishing was just as good.
The Arctic Char
A Fish That Requires Patience
Arctic char isn't like trout. It doesn't follow rules. Some days it's active for hours, other days it rests on the bottom and ignores everything you cast.
But when the char finally wakes – when the surface breaks with fish after fish – then you understand why people come back to these lakes.
What can you expect?
Arctic char of 1-3 kg are common in our lakes. Larger fish exist. But we don't promise record catches. What we offer is access to lakes where fish live undisturbed – and it shows.
Who This Is For
Not for Everyone
This trip suits you if you appreciate silence. If you have time to wait for the fish. If you prefer an experience you'll remember over one you can brag about.
You don't need to be in top shape – especially not with helicopter. But even the ATV option only requires moderate hiking without a heavy pack.
Age is no limitation. We've had guests from 30 to 75 years old. Physical challenges can often be accommodated – let us know and we'll figure out what's possible.
Practical Information
Tailored to You
Every trip is different. Duration, group size, which lakes, transport – everything is adapted to your wishes.
Typical setup:
- 2-7 days at the lake
- Camp with tent and necessary equipment
- You bring sleeping bag, pad, food, and fishing gear
- We bring everything else
We discuss:
- Which transport solution suits you
- Which period gives the best conditions
- What you can expect from fishing at that time
- Any adaptations for your group
Next Steps
Let's Have a Chat
A trip like this deserves a conversation first. Not a form – a proper chat about what you're looking for and what's possible.

No obligations. Just an honest conversation about whether this is for you.
Common Questions
What's the difference between the two options?
Same lakes, same fishing, same camp experience. The difference is how you get there – and the price. The ATV option costs about half of helicopter.
How far do you walk with the ATV option?
It varies by which lake we choose – from a short 30-40 minute walk to longer hikes. You walk without a pack, so it's manageable for most.
What if the weather turns bad?
Arctic weather is unpredictable. For helicopter, it may mean delays. ATV is more flexible. In both cases, we adapt – it's part of being this far out.
Can I come alone?
Yes. Many do. Prices are per trip, so it pays to bring others – but some prefer the solitude alone.
Do I need a lot of experience?
No. But you should enjoy fishing, and you should enjoy peace and quiet.
