Activity description

Snowshoeing is the winter equivalent to hiking and the Lapland region of Finland has some of the most stunning landscapes for you to experience the peacefulness of walking over snow!

When winter comes, snow covers the ancient forests of Finland. The Lapland region, up north, has some of the best places for you to experience the winter wonderland and what a better way than snowshoeing over deep snow!

This sport dates back at least 3500 years when the practice was everything but a sport. Back then, it was the best way to move over heavy snow while exploring the Lappish nature. Today, this activity offers you the chance of feeling like those early explorers and catch a few images of the stunning landscapes. During your snowshoeing excursion, you'll be able to access remote areas allowing you to connect with untouched nature and take in the glorious atmosphere of Arctic forests!

After meeting in Rovaniemi, you will travel by minivan to a secret location hidden in the woods nearby the city. The team will provide you with high-quality snowshoes specially made for deep-snow. Then, you'll get ready and head on a few kilometers into the wilderness!

During the day, you'll take a break in a wooden shelter where, together with the team, you'll build a campfire and enjoy some snacks. The tour is guided by a professional guide and photographer who will also teach you some tricks and techniques for your own landscape and nature photography!

Keep the camera ready since you may encounter some wildlife during the adventure!
