Polar Expedition Leadership Challenge 2026

We are returning to Norway for an exceptional winter experience for the 5th year. We are again partnering with Polar Guides, we invite you to step on to your skis and take the opportunity to discover a unique and remote region of Norway. Travelling with the doctor-explorers of the WellFounded Team and our world class guides, Denise Martin and Are Johansen, this bespoke experience is a tailor made ski touring expedition based around historic Finse region of Norway. Operating from the incredible Finse Hotel where Amundsen, Scott and Shackleton all trained for their early century polar achievements, with world class food and an unparalleled view, Finse is the place to be. Learn how to safely and enjoyably navigate the winter wilds and be comfortable and confident in this inspiring landscape. Our expedition will kickstart your love for adventure as you experience camping in a snuggly warm tent and discover the special qualities of traveling in a winter environment. Find your inner explorer and get to the next level of endurance, resilience and leadership like we did on our 2023 INSPIRE South Pole research expedition or simply come to unplug, reset and reconnect in this idyllic setting.

Pulk weights are 30-40 kg. Skiing is quite straightforward with our expedition skis and skins, some previous experience on skis is recommended. We will camp on snow; camping anywhere is allowed and where we set up camp will be based on the needs of the group. An evening filled with tent tipples/ silliness/ singing! DAY 4 - Expedition day 2 Expedition: We will break camp and spend the day continuing the expedition. This may be an out and back route, or a loop, depending on weather and conditions. We may have the option to go onto the HardangerJokulen - the glacier - but not guaranteed. Another magical night camping out under the stars.
