Activity description
Join the trail through Abisko National Park as your snowshoes allow you to discover new terrain, uncover wild animal tracks, and witness some raw Arctic views!
Follow your local guide as they show you some of the wilder parts of Abisko National Park. As you go along, they will point out the wild animal tracks in the snow, so you can learn a bit more about the park's residents. If you're lucky, you may even have some sightings - reindeer, moose, martens, and Arctic foxes are all among the mammals that reside in this Arctic Wonderland. Whether they come out to show their faces or not, you are sure to take in some beautiful views over the Lappish National Park and its fabulous forest of pine trees.
At the start of the activity, your guide will provide you with some warm overalls as well as your snowshoes, so you are all set with no need to bring any specialized equipment. They will also bring along some hot drinks for you to sip on in the National Park, warming you up from the inside out.
