Detailed description

Experience the essence of Lapland through three magical days filled with Arctic adventures, authentic traditions and serene moments under the northern sky. Arctic Discovery takes you deep into Finland's snowy wilderness, where you walk through silent forests on snowshoes, marvel at the Northern Lights and meet reindeer in a charming Winter Activity Park by a frozen lake.

Day 1 runs from 10:00 to 12:30. Step into a true Arctic experience with a guided Snowshoe Adventure in Ranua, where each step takes you deeper into Lapland's pristine nature. A local guide leads you through snow-covered forests and peaceful landscapes that are often unreachable without snowshoes.

This easy and unforgettable excursion offers a fresh perspective on Lapland's tranquil beauty, combining gentle exercise with the silence of nature. Along the way, you pause to enjoy a hot drink by the fire in the calm Arctic wilderness.

Day 2 runs from 20:00 to 23:00. Join a magical Northern Lights tour in Ranua, where the dark winter sky may reveal one of nature's most awe-inspiring shows. From a secluded viewing spot surrounded by snowy forests and frozen lakes, you have an open view of the Arctic sky.

While waiting for the auroras, you gather by a cozy campfire to enjoy grilled sausages, warm drinks and stories of Lapland from your local guide. Even if the Northern Lights do not appear, the wilderness, stars and glow of the fire create a memorable night.

Day 3 runs from 12:00 to 15:00. Travel by snowmobile-pulled sleigh through a snow-draped forest, wrapped in reindeer hides, to Lupland's Winter Activity Park by a frozen lake. There you can enjoy skating, kicksledding, downhill sledding, snowshoeing, e-mountain bikes, reindeer feeding and walking on a lead.

The highlight of the final day is a reindeer sleigh ride across a serene wilderness lake, with time for photos and quiet moments to remember. You can also relax in a traditional sauna, take a refreshing ice bath and end the adventure with warm stories by the fire.
