Join Meløy Adventure on a guided glacier hike on Engabreen, a branch of the Svartisen Glacier by the Holandsfjord in Meløy. Experience blue ice, crevasses, and Arctic nature with a glacier guide. Join us for a day trip or under the midnight sun.
Engabreen, a visible glacier tongue of Svartisen that stretches down toward the fjord landscape, is located by Holandsfjorden in Meløy. Accompanied by a guide, you’ll venture onto the glacier equipped with the necessary safety gear, including a helmet, ice axe, climbing harness, and crampons. Along the way, you’ll see blue ice, ice formations, and crevasses. The guide will adapt the route based on conditions on the glacier and the group’s skill level. The tour is suitable for participants in generally good physical condition.
Svartisen is Norway’s second-largest glacier, covering an area of approximately 370 km².
The hike takes place in spectacular surroundings—be sure to bring your camera.
