WINTER
Polar nights last about four weeks up here in fell Lapland, starting in early December. The nature sleeps and the sun does not rise. On a clear day, the sun pushes its light up from under the horizon and paints the sky a beautiful pink and orange, making for spectacular views. On snowy days, the air can be quite fuzzy. Temperatures can be -40°C or +2°C, whatever the nature gives – and it gives a lot. Snowshoeing on fresh powder snow, watching millions of stars and the northern lights out on a frozen lake. During a clear full moon day, a lamp is not needed. This is the best time to take a hike on a fell, a small mountain in the wilderness. Then starting a camp fire to warm up while heating up a nice drink or tasty food.
All our tours are made in small groups, max 6 participants. Bigger groups will always have a private tour.
