FAQ

How is the Tromsø Ice Domes Snow Park built?

The Tamok Valley, the area in which the park is located, has a unique positioning climate wise. The winters in the valley are long, stable, and cold- making it an ideal location for Tromsø Ice Domes Snow Park. Every winter, an international crew of professional snow carvers is flown in to transform blocks of ice and snow into incredible Arctic Art rebuilding the Snow Park.

Inside the park, there are snow domes as well as ice sculptures and other freezing features such as a captivating labyrinth! The snow is usually made on the spot by snow cannons and formed into the shapes needed. The ice is harvested from a local lake up in the mountains and transported down to this Winter Wonderland. Every year, the artists follow a new theme, and every year is more marvellous than the last.
