Kirovsk Snowmobile Day Trip
One hour of instructor-led snowmobiling in the Khibiny Mountains, with equipment, briefing and return transport from Murmansk.
This scheduled day trip takes you from Murmansk to Kirovsk, in the Khibiny mountains, for a one-hour guided snowmobile ride. The trail is chosen on the day according to current snow and weather, with a reference distance of around 17 km. Return transport, equipment, a safety briefing, an instructor and an English-speaking accompanying guide are included, and two guests share each snowmobile. The programme runs about 12 hours in total, including travel; optional extras such as the cable car, SnowBus, Snow Village and a buffet lunch can be arranged separately at extra cost.
Your tour programme
Murmansk to Kirovsk
Return transport takes you from Murmansk to Kirovsk in the Khibiny Mountains. The full programme lasts about 12 hours including travel, with one hour allocated to the snowmobile ride.
The guided snowmobile ride
In Kirovsk, the programme centres on one hour of guided snowmobiling. An instructor leads the ride and gives a safety briefing beforehand, and the trail is chosen on the day based on current snow and weather conditions rather than fixed in advance.
17 km is the reference distance for this one-hour segment, but the operator can shorten, lengthen or reroute it when conditions require. Two guests share each snowmobile.
Optional extras in Kirovsk
Beyond the included hour of snowmobiling, several paid extras can be added depending on time, operator availability and conditions: the cable car, the SnowBus, a visit to Snow Village, and a buffet lunch at Tirvas. None of these is part of the standard group price, and each is confirmed separately before or during booking.
Language and group arrangement
The guide accompanying the group speaks English. The language used by venue staff, and for the hands-on activity instruction itself such as the safety briefing, is confirmed separately at booking rather than guaranteed to be English throughout.

Meeting and preparation
Your meeting point
We confirm the meeting point and departure time for this programme before booking. Tell us where you are staying when you send your request.
Before you go
- Decide before booking whether you want any of the optional extras — cable car, SnowBus, Snow Village or the Tirvas buffet lunch — since each depends on time and availability and is arranged separately from the standard price.
- If you plan to add the buffet lunch, mention any allergies or dietary requirements before booking; no meal is included in the standard group programme.
- Because two guests share each snowmobile, book together with a travel companion where possible, or ask about the arrangement in advance if you are travelling alone.
- Check the Monday and Thursday group departure dates for the season you're travelling in (December to April) and confirm availability before finalizing other plans, since this is a scheduled tour with a minimum group size.
- Bring warm layers, gloves and insulated footwear for the outdoor activities. The 12-hour programme also includes the return journey from Murmansk.

Snowmobiling in the Khibiny Mountains from Murmansk
Kirovsk sits in the Khibiny mountains, reached by a return road transfer from Murmansk as part of this scheduled day trip. The one-hour snowmobile programme runs on a trail chosen for current snow and weather, with 17 km as a reference distance rather than a fixed route.
This Kirovsk-based trip is a separate programme from other snowmobile offerings, such as the shorter tour operating near Murmansk itself, which follows its own schedule and pricing. Choosing between them depends on whether you want a Khibiny mountain excursion with Kirovsk's optional extras, or a shorter outing closer to the city.
