What to expect?
Adventure and Arctic tradition in one unforgettable day. This snowmobile and ice fishing safari takes you deep into the wilderness of Ylläs, where powdery snow blankets the fells and the only sound is your engine and the wind.
After riding through untouched forests and open Lappish terrain, you arrive at a tranquil frozen lake — the perfect setting to try your hand at ice fishing, one of Finland's most cherished winter traditions. With guidance from your expert local guide, you'll drill through the ice and cast your line into the cold, still water below. As you wait for a bite, take in the silence and beauty of a landscape most visitors never reach.
Your guide prepares a warm meal and hot drinks by the fire, rounding off the experience with stories of Lappish culture, wildlife and life in the Arctic North. All equipment provided. Minimum age 13. Solo drive upgrade available
