Any fish you catch can be taken back to our restaurant, cooked and served up for you to enjoy. After your meal, you have plenty of time to relax in your cabin, take a sauna or go out exploring the surroundings before dinner is served at 19:00.

During your three-course dinner in Låven restaurant, we will give a "how-to-sleep-in-the-snowhotel" tutorial for those of you spending the first night in a Snowhotel room. A one-night-only adventure sleeping in our minus 4 celsius snow rooms. After dinner, the ice bar will be open.

After waking up from a magical night at the Snowhotel, you are welcome to our breakfast buffet which is served from 08:30AM until 10:00AM at our restaurant. Those of you staying overnight at a Snowroom will be kindly asked to check out of their room before breakfast.

After breakfast you will have time to enjoy our park; visit the Snowhotel, cuddle with the huskies and visit the reindeer, go for a hike, or try your luck fishing in the fjord (fishing available for rental). The restaurant is open if you would like to order some lunch.

At 12:40 your driver will meet you at the reception to take you to Kirkenes for the King crab Safari.
