Morning activity - Snowmobile safari

The snowmobiles are a convenient means of transportation beyond the Arctic Circle. Locals use them anywhere from going to the grocery store to paying a visit to a friend who lives behind the hill. The route takes you to hidden places out in the wilderness, surrounded by beautiful landscapes.

Evening activity - Forest ice skating

Glide through a lovely, well-lit forest path under the twinkling glow of Christmas lights!

Morning activity - Reindeer Herder Experience

We will visit a reindeer herder and learn about the traditions and culture of the indigenous people of Northern Europe, the Sámi, and the reindeer herding in Lapland. In addition, you will get to feed the reindeer and take lots of photos with them.

Afternoon activity - Cross-country skiing for beginners

We will try one of the oldest winter sports, which is also the national sport of the Nordics. The most extensive cross-country ski tracks in Finland are right here in Ylläs, where you can choose from 330 km of ski tracks.

Free time for your own activities.

Morning activity - Husky Safari

We start the day early in the morning but don’t worry, your mood will be instantly lifted when you meet your new furry friends! Visit to a traditional sled dog kennel and a sleigh-ride through the snowy forest is a highlight of any Lapland trip.  

Evening activity - Snowshoe hike (night tour)

We will get to experience one of the most ancient ways of moving in deep snow, which is still used today. We get off the beaten track and explore a winter wonderland that would be hard to access on foot or skis. What a better way to immerse yourself in nature!
