Snow Resort Kirkenes
About Snow Resort Kirkenes
Snow Resort Kirkenes gives you a strong Arctic Norway experience without feeling too far from town. You can sleep in the Snowhotel, stay in warm Gamme cabins, see ice sculptures, meet huskies, try king crab activities, and join Northern Lights tours when conditions are right. The setting feels quiet and remote, but it is still easy to reach, which makes it a good choice for a short winter trip with plenty to do.

Dining
Snow Resort Kirkenes has two restaurants, one café, and an Icebar experience. The food leans local and Arctic, with Låven as the main restaurant, Teina tied to king crab safaris and private events, Gabba for casual daytime café stops, and the Icebar adding a snow-and-ice drink setting inside Snowhotel 365. Låven Restaurant - The main dining venue at Snow Resort Kirkenes, set in a restored farmhouse with views across the surrounding wilderness and fjord. The menu focuses on Arctic ingredients, seasonal local produce, and warm post-adventure dinners. Teina Restaurant - A dedicated king crab dining venue used for the resort’s king crab safari guests. It also works as a private event space for pre-booked dinners, weddings, meetings, and group functions, with king crab served in a classic North Norwegian style. Gabba Café - A wooden Sami hut café made for warming up between activities. During winter, it serves hot drinks, pastries, light meals, and lunch in a relaxed Arctic setting. Icebar - Located inside Snowhotel 365, the Icebar is part of the guided Snowhotel visit experience. Guests can have a non-alcoholic welcome drink surrounded by snow art, ice sculptures, and the frozen interiors that make the resort so distinctive.
