DESCRIPTION

EXPLORE, ENJOY, LEARN! 

GUIDED TOUR WITH FIRE MAKING EXPERIENCE

Step into the wild and discover the beautiful wilderness of Lapland with this complete educational tour. The hike is adapted to the level of the group with different difficulty options, and to the highlights of the season. Even without snow, Lapland is worth discovering!

 

HIKING OPTIONS 

We offer two types of guided hikes, both designed to help you explore the untamed beauty of Lapland while learning essential outdoor skills and connecting with nature: 

HALF-DAY TOUR
Duration: 3,5  – 4 hours 
A gentle and accessible hike through a beautiful natural area in the Rovaniemi region. Covering a distance of around 4 to 5 kilometers, this tour leads you through peaceful boreal forests to a scenic viewpoint overlooking the surrounding wilderness. It’s ideal for families, beginners, or anyone seeking a lighter but rewarding outdoor experience.

ALL DAY TOUR
Duration: 7 – 8 hours 
A more extensive hiking adventure adapted to your interests and physical level. You can choose between a longer route (10–15 km) in the Rovaniemi area for a full immersion into Arctic forests and fells, or a moderate hike (5–8 km) in another part of Lapland to explore unique natural features: such as deep canyons or the rounded summits of Lappish fells (our “local mountains”).

 

In both cases, the experience is designed to explore some elusive nature area or reach some viewpoints over the immense subarctic forests. Along the way, your outdoor guide will explain to you about your surroundings, the fauna and flora, footprints in the early snow or in the mud, how to use trees or mushrooms, identify the berries to eat, and some other basics of how to survive in such difficult conditions.
 
A break with an open fire will also allow you to grill a typical Finnish snack with hot beverages. This is a great opportunity for your guide to show you how to build a fire in arcitc conditions and answer all your questions about Lapland.
 
To ensure a more intimate and meaningful experience, we operate this tour in small groups only.
