About us

Hege , the founder, inspired by her own experiences in the outdoors, sought to merge adventure and transformative experiences with social responsibility, accommodation and giving back to community and nature, fell in love with this Island many years ago when her husband Stig-Jarle took her to his mother home place Senjahopen north on Senja. She felt more home on Senja Island and related to the nature, people and culture here.

 

In 2017 Hege and Stig Jarle packed their bags and moved to Senja together with their three children to fulfill the dream. They saw the potential and bought this forgotten place. The dream is to create unforgettable experiences from the most wonderful place on Earth. 1 of may 2017 Norwegian Wild was born and the wild adventure began!

 

Thank you so much for visiting us and Senja. We cannot thank you enough

 

Don’t hesitate to ask questions to us and our team, we will do our very best to help you

 

Best adventures regards Hege & Stig
