The nonprofit Rissa Citizen Science and the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research (NINA) are partnering to reduce the negative environmental and social impacts of northern lights tourism in Tromsø, with a particular focus on campfires.​

 

Travellers are invited to become part of the solution by helping remove campfires and restore vegetation at northern lights viewing hotspots.​

​

Join us for a day trip on Kvaløya, the Whale Island!

The event is free but the registration is binding.

​

• ​Pickup time: 10:00 (from Tromsø Activities Hostel, Storgata 107)

• Return time: 15:00​

​

More about the project here on Rissa CS' website, and on NINA's website.

​

This is not a commercial tour: This event is an opportunity to raise awareness and promote leave-no-trace practices among travelers and northern lights guides.
