Testimonials

I thought this trip would be great, I was underestimating this place, the boat and the crew. This has blown my mind. Nature and mother earth never cease to amaze me. Thanks so much for the unforgettable memories!
Mike Wallace, California
It's hard to put words on the value for a cyclist keen on climbing that comes from being dropped off in a harbour at sea level with a range of mountains available to you. And then having the luxury to be picked up by the same boat at nightfall, in a different harbour, just do it all again the following day!
Eric, Sweden
What a week in the Fjords! My husband and I have travelled extensively and this adventure is up there as one of the best. Sven and his team look after every need and know the area intimately. The food was 5-star worth travelling for itself.
Sarah, UK
It was a fantastic experience. The ski tours were some of the best in Norway, the guides chose safe and appropriate routes for our group. We only saw a handful of other skiers the whole week. The food was great and the hospitality was warm. This truly was the trip of a lifetime.
Dave Clarke, Oregon
The week spent on the Gaasten with Sven, Tash, and Emily was a lifetime experience (one that I hope to have the fortune to repeat – again and again). We came on the boat as “clients” and we left as friends. Truly a unique and special experience. If you’re considering a trip, one word: GO!!!”
Erika Nelson
There be no trolls aboard the Gåssten! A warm and cosy refuge from the Brutal Beauty of this landscape, it is almost overwhelming. An absolutely unforgettable trip. Thank you all.

A Message from Sven Stewart

Like you, our valued clients, we are sailing into unknown waters. Our priority is the health and wellbeing of our guests, crew and suppliers and we must follow the guidelines of both the UK and Norwegian Governments at this challenging time.
 
It is with a heavy heart that we have therefore cancelled our entire Spring ski-touring and split-boarding calendar.
 
We have every intention of being operational for the summer season if circumstances allow, and we are taking bookings from July onwards. We are also taking bookings for the 2021 winter and summer season.
 
Please follow us on instagram @hmsgasstencharters for up to date information and inspiring pictures of Norway and HMS Gåssten to keep a smile on your face.
 
Please do all you can to look after yourselves, your family, your friends and neighbours and we will see you onboard when this crisis is over,
 
Stay Happy and Healthy 
Sven.
 
Owner and Skipper of HMS Gåssten.
