Experience Details

Spend some time with a local showing you some of the best sides of Lapland. You will be taken to a peaceful lake in the wilderness.


We'll meet at my house near Ivalo(8km).


Before start we'll check that you have enough warm clothes and dress in haulers and thermal boots to make sure cold temp will not restrict your experience.


From my house we'll move first by car and then with a snowmobile and sleigh onto a lake surrounded by hills and fells. You'll enjoy the common local way of spending time on a lake catching fish with a rod. During the tour we'll move around the lake also for sightseeing.


On an island you will be taught how to make fire and do some food by the fire. We'll enjoy the warmth of the fire and hot drinks.


This is one way we locals enjoy the nature of Lapland. So should everyone visiting Lapland do also.

We'll enjoy the scenery ride in the sleigh and peaceful nature while fishing on the lake. Food will be prepared by camp fire where we shall be laying on reindeer hides.
