Enchanting Lapland: snow, silence and adventure
Let yourself be captivated by the serene beauty of Lapland, a world of endless snowfields, magical forests and dancing northern lights. Here, above the Arctic Circle, you’ll experience a unique mix of peace, nature and adventure. Picture yourself on a husky safari through the white wilderness, a reindeer sleigh ride or a thrilling snowmobile trip, followed by moments of relaxation in a cosy Arctic Spa while the snow falls outside. Days are filled with outdoor activities, evenings with the warmth of your chalet or Aurora View Suite. And with a bit of luck, the northern lights will crown your journey.
Highlights of this tour
Stay surrounded by nature
At the top of Iso Syöte, your standard stay is in a comfortable hotel room in the main building, with all facilities close at hand. Want to make your holiday even more special? Upgrade to a cosy wooden chalet with fireplace and sauna, or to a stylish Aurora View Suite with hot tub and panoramic views. Whatever you choose, the tranquillity of nature and free access to the Arctic Spa will make your stay unforgettable.
Snowmobile safari
Nothing feels as adventurous as gliding through the Lapland wilderness on a snowmobile. Hills, frozen lakes and fairytale forests unfold as the crisp air tingles your cheeks. Along the way, warm up by a campfire with a steaming cup of coffee. The perfect mix of adrenaline and nature, and an unforgettable introduction to Lapland.
Husky safari
The eager barking of huskies, the sled sliding forward and you holding the reins: this is Lapland as you’ve always imagined it. Together with your dog team, you cross endless white plains and frozen forests. Halfway through, you switch drivers and enjoy the silence, the power and the magic of this traditional mode of transport.

Climate
The Lapland region has a subarctic to continental climate characterized by mild summers and cold, snowy winters. During the peak travel season, December to February, the region experiences an average temperature range of about -16°C (3°F) to 3°C (37°F) depending on location, with occasional lows of about -30°C (-22°F) or colder with wind chill. Thankfully, the dry, crisp air has a moderating effect on the temperatures.
The amount and duration of snowfall also varies by location, but the average number of days with snow is around 175 – 225 days per year between mid-October and mid-May. The long-lasting snow cover makes Lapland an ideal place for leisure activities like dog-sledding, skiing, snowmobiling, etc.
In the summertime, temperatures are usually 10 - 15°C (50 - 60°F) and rainfall is moderate. With an abundance of rivers and lakes in Lapland, boating and fishing are especially popular summer activities, as is hiking.
