What to bring
It is crucial to wear all your warmest clothes, focusing on layers—this includes wool underlayers, wool socks, a winter coat, warm boots, gloves or mittens, and a hat. You'll be provided with thermal suits to wear over your clothing. Don't forget to bring water in a reusable bottle, your camera for capturing memorable moments, and your passport or ID, especially since there's a possibility we might cross into Finland.
