Finnish Lapland Winter Family Holiday

Finnish Lapland Winter Family Holiday

Gather the family and prepare to experience the magic of Finland at wintertime on this epic 5 day adventure. You will be transported from Rovaniemi, the capital of Finnish Lapland, to the spectacular Hossa National Park where you will spend four nights with your family in a beautiful eco-lodge. Along the way you will meet friendly reindeer, be whisked through snow-dusted woodlands by a team of incredible huskies and learn the traditional ways of life, and survival, in the remote Finnish wilderness from a local guide. Whether you’re building igloos, enjoying a campfire under the night sky waiting for the northern lights to appear, or trying snowshoeing on for size, there’s unforgettable fun to be had for travellers of all ages.

Activities

• Rovaniemi – Reindeer farm
• Hossa National Park – Half day husky dog sledding

Highlights

• Unplug and fully immerse in the natural beauty of your unique eco-lodge stay in the heart of Hossa National Park, more than 60 miles (+100kms) away from the nearest village
• Be pulled across the landscape at high speed on the back of a dog sled. These incredible huskies are doing what they love most – making a lot of noise before rushing along sprawling trails.
• Visit a local Reindeer Farm where you will get to meet these beautiful animals up close and learn the art of reindeer herding and life on the farm.
• Learn how to make an igloo along with other survival skills from a local guide on a day of adventure in the Finnish wilderness.
• The northern lights (aurora borealis) are the best lightshow on Earth and each night you will have an opportunity to look up at the night sky and hopefully witness the magic for yourself (subject to weather conditions)
