Days 2-6. Arctic activities

Snowmobile Adventure

Snowmobiling is the best way to truly explore the wilderness. After a snowmobiling lesson and safety instructions, we will head off on a snowmobiling adventure that will take us through the untouched wilderness surrounding it. During the day, we will enjoy camp lunch by the open fire and warm drinks to keep us warm. Is there a better way to spend a winter day?

Husky & Reindeer Day

To start of your day, you'll be chauffeured from Nangu to a Sami Village by car. Upon arrival, prepare to meet both reindeer and huskies, promising delightful encounters throughout the day!

Meet the reindeer is offering fascinating insights into Sámi culture and the northern way of life. Step inside the reindeer enclosure and immerse yourself in the captivating world of these majestic creatures. Your knowledgeable guide will share tales of Sámi traditions and the intricate rhythms of a reindeer's life throughout the seasons. You will have a chance to feed the reindeer – these curious animals might even come up and eat out of your hand!

On Husky Safari you'll receive expert instruction on sledding techniques before embarking on a thrilling ride. Huskies will pull your sled through breathtaking winter landscapes, including the frozen splendor of Lake Inari. The dogs’ excitement is infectious and as the animals fall silent on the trail, you will realize that this is the only way to see Lapland.

During the day lunch will be served.

Ice Fishing Experience

Join our guide on an ice fishing experience! Our journey will start with a short snowmobile sleigh ride on the ice to our fishing place. Once we have reached our destination our guide will teach us the secrets of this popular winter activity among the locals. We will learn how to drill holes to the ice, how to operate the fishing gear and then it’s time to try our luck. Some warm drinks are served to keep us warm while we wait for the fish to bite in the beautiful scenery of the arctic lake.

Snowshoeing Adventure

On this activity we will be exploring the varied terrains around Wilderness Hotel Nangu on foot: from the frozen surface of Lake Inari to the enchanting forest and hills rising from the shoreline. We will trek through this winter wonderland enjoying the silence. During the trip, the guide will share interesting stories and information about Finnish nature and animals. On the way, we will stop to enjoy lunch and warm drinks by the open fire. This trip is perfect for photographers and nature lovers, as snowshoeing is a true eco-activity!

Cross Country Skiing

Learn this traditional Finnish winter sport on a relaxing skiing trip on Lake Inari. We will get to know the skis, how to cope with them and learn some useful techniques. This skiing tryout is all about learning something new: once you get the hang of it, it will be the nicest sport you have ever done. Don’t be afraid to fall over, as the soft snow will help you land safely. We will be skiing over the frozen Lake Inari, admiring the beautiful scenery with no hurry, stopping to take pictures and enjoy warm drinks on the way.

Aurora Camp

This activity takes you Aurora hunting on the amazing Lake Inari. You will be comfortably seated in a sleigh pulled by the guide’s snowmobile. This way you can enjoy the northern sky all the way to the camp place. While observing the night sky, we will enjoy the blazing campfire with hot drinks and each other’s company. The atmosphere by the campfire is an experience in itself. Lake Inari is one of the best places in the world for Aurora viewing, as our Aurora Camps are located far away from any artificial lights. With a bit of luck, we might get to enjoy this unique light phenomenon.

Aurora Snowmobiling

On this snowmobiling tour, you will head to Lake Inari in search of the Northern Lights, looking for the best spots to view the open night sky. Driving distance depends on the weather conditions – if the sky looks promising, we will make more stops to admire the Northern Lights that will hopefully appear for us.

Day 7. Departure

After breakfast you are transferred to Ivalo Airport. It’s time to say goodbye to Nangu and head towards new adventures.
