Winter adventure in Lapland

Arrival at Ivalo Airport and transfer to Muotka Wilderness Lodge, approx. 30 minutes. Check in at the hotel and then welcome dinner.

Snowmobiling is a lot of fun and an unforgettable experience. There is plenty of white snow, lots of tracks and beautiful scenery all around. On this snowmobiling tour we will be spending most of our time on
snowmobiles exploring the forests and fellside. A magic way to spend a winter day. During the day we also eat lunch and get hot drinks to keep us warm.

Today you will learn about local sami culture and history. You will feed the reindeer – the curious animals might come and eat out of your hand. You will learn how to lasso a reindeer and a short reindeer sleigh ride is also part of the experience. Lunch is included during the trip. The driver of the snowmobile must be at least 18 years of age with a driver’s license valid in Finland.

Huskie safari – an absolute “must” when visiting Lapland! The dog’s enthusiasm is contagious, and when the dogs take off, you will realize that this is the best way to experience Lapland. All safaris include a good introduction to the trip. The trip is based on two people sharing a sled, unless otherwise stated.

We will equip you with snowshoes and poles if preferred. We are going to head for a nice little walk in the surrounding nature. Along the way, our guide will share interesting stories and information about the Finnish nature and animals. This is a perfect way to explore the surroundings in peace. Later in the evening you will do another snow shoeing experience the surrounding nature and Northern lights on foot! You will wander in the amazing taiga forests surrounding Muotka until finally reaching the camp spot. At the camp we enjoy some warm drinks and gaze at the sky in the hopes of a possible Northern Lights show.

Aurora Camp – Aurora Camp is the all time favorite among guests. This trip takes you to one of the specifically chosen spots, where you will try to catch the Northern Lights. You will have professional Aurora guide with you, some drinks and snacks will be served around a bonfire and hopefully a magical show on the sky.

After breakfast we say goodbye to this wild winter country!

Admire the star-filled sky or witness the awesome spectacle of the Northern Lights from the comfort of your bed. The laser-heated glass-roof opens up into the northern sky, directly above the bed. Each Aurora Cabin has a private bathroom with shower and has either its own sauna or its own interior fireplace.
