During the hike you will discover beautiful white landscapes, especially in Pyhä, there are a lot of big trees, and such a wonderful view at the top. You will very probably spot many footprints of wild animals that your guide will explain to you. It will also be the opportunity to try pulling the “pulka”, the expedition sleigh.
It should take around 12 km before you get to your wilderness hut with sauna. You can enjoy a relaxing sauna session to chill now, while your guide is preparing dinner for you! If you are lucky, the night will even bring some Northern Lights!

At the end of the day you should arrive at the second wilderness hut and get some rest, relax, enjoy moments, have a good dinner and go to sleep before the last day! The hut is also equipped with a sauna, if you would like to relax your muscles before going to bed!
