Arctic Circle Ice Karting
At the Arctic Circle, winter isn’t just scenery – it’s a driving condition.
Ice Karting delivers a relaxed yet high-energy winter experience where the ice sprays and the smiles grow wider under the helmet. This season’s must-try highlight is ice karting on a dedicated frozen track: sharp acceleration, precise steering and friendly competition guarantee a real adrenaline rush – even for experienced drivers.
Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned driver, the icy track will put your skills to the test.
Step onto the ice – challenge yourself and the others!
