When you think of Norway, you think of Oslo or Bergen. But Finse? That one does not normally make the list. From 10-12 February, the small town of Finse, Norway will be host to one of the world's largest gatherings of explorers and adventurers. Expedition Finse 2023 could easily be considered a "midwinter" meeting of some of the most exciting people on the planet.
Lectures, tutorials and other outdoor adventures will be taking place. Additionally, some attendees have the option of camping on the property, instead of staying in a hotel room. While I am not so sure that I would have the heart to do this, there will undoubtedly be a number of hearty souls chomping at the bit to do it. One positive for camping outdoors? The conditions are like those found in polar regions. If you have a cold-weather expedition coming up, this is a terrific opportunity to get some practice in.
Among those in attendance will be John Shears and Nico Vincent from the Endurance22 Expedition , and world-renowned Norwegian explorer Børge Ousland. This will be an amazing opportunity to rub elbows with some of the most famous explorers in the modern world!
