Snowmobile Ride + Reindeer & Husky Sleigh Ride
Description
Discover the beauty of Lapland by embarking on an exhilarating snowmobile adventure followed by a unique reindeer and husky sleigh ride across stunning snowy trails. Prepare for an adrenaline-filled experience amidst the Arctic landscapes!
Activity Details
Upon pickup from your designated meeting point at the scheduled time, we will proceed to a Lapland forest. Here, you will be provided with thermal clothing to keep warm and receive safety instructions for operating the snowmobiles. Once ready, we will begin our adventure!
We will spend 1 hour navigating the snow-covered vistas of Lapland, passing through forested areas blanketed in snow and sprawling frozen plains that resemble a Nordic fairytale. We will take breaks along the route to capture these amazing moments, so make sure to bring your camera!
After the snowmobile experience, we will transition to a reindeer farm located in a natural setting. Here, you will have a chance to enjoy a 1640 ft (500 m) reindeer sleigh ride and earn your "reindeer sleigh driver's license." You will also meet local shepherds who will share fascinating insights about reindeer herding in modern times.
Next, we will visit the huskies. Get ready for a 1640 ft (500 m) husky sleigh ride and observe how these incredible dogs work in harmony to glide through the snow—an unforgettable sight!
You will also have some free time to explore the area, take photographs, or enjoy the crisp Arctic air. If you choose, there is an option to have lunch or enjoy a hot beverage at the farm's restaurant at your own expense.
At the conclusion of the activity, we will return you to the initial pickup point, with an expected return time of 6 hours after your pickup.
