In this unforgettable evening adventure, you’ll experience the magical winter landscapes of Lapland on an electric fatbike. Ride through the snowy forests and vast boglands, your path illuminated by powerful headlights, while the electric assistance makes uphill climbs effortless.
As you ride under the dark Arctic sky, the thrill of the journey intensifies. The surrounding darkness adds a mysterious edge to the experience, and if you're lucky, the Northern Lights may appear, adding an awe-inspiring touch to this already extraordinary ride.
This activity combines speed, nature, and Arctic magic in a truly unique way. It’s more than just a bike ride – it’s an adventure where every moment feels rare and special. Don’t miss the chance to see Lapland from a whole new perspective!
E-fatbikes are available in various frame sizes, which should match the riders' height. The Bliss e-fatbike fleet has a suitable bike for everyone, from 155 centimetres (5'1") to 210 centimetres (6'11").
For those staying in neighbouring Luosto, we highly recommend the e-fatbike tour in Pyhä, as it offers you the chance to explore a completely new area of the Pyhä-Luosto National Park. The total duration of the tour, including transportation, is approximately 3,5 hours.

Please note
The Northern Lights Hunting lasts 2 hours. No Auroras? No problem. Even if the Northern Lights don’t make an appearance and the snow falls gently around us, the adventure is still unforgettable. Riding through the silent, snow-covered landscapes on an electric fatbike is a magical experience in itself. The crisp winter air, the glow of our bike lights against the snowy trails, and the peaceful atmosphere of the Arctic night create a truly special journey. So, let’s embrace the winter wonderland, enjoy the ride, and make the most of this unique adventure!
Minimum height requirement: 155 cm. Even riders shorter than this can ride an S-size fatbike if they are sporty and have the right attitude. However, we recommend testing the electric fatbike beforehand before booking the tour.
From Rovaniemi, the closest airport and Santa Claus’ headquarters, it takes two hours by car or by Skibus to reach us in Pyhä (Hotel Pyhätunturi).
For peace of mind, we recommend checking in advance that your travel insurance covers your chosen activity.
Kindly note that 10% of the price of your tour is non-refundable. The 10% will be used to cover fees connected to your booking such as credit card transactions and other administrative charges. Refunds will only be issued to the card used to purchase the tour.
