Activity description

Ride into the Taiga Arctic Forest on this snowmobile session in Lapland from Rovaniemi. Welcoming adventurers of all ages on this family-friendly excursion!

This tour takes place from Rovaniemi, the capital city of Lapland, located in northern Finland. The area is situated just beside the Arctic Circle, featuring snowy forests, frozen lakes and picturesque terrains during the winter. This snowmobile excursion allows you to reach inaccessible parts of the Taiga Forest surrounding the region.

You will start by meeting your guide in Rovaniemi (pickup is available within a 15km driving distance). This tour is specially designed for beginners who have no experience with driving a snowmobile. A safety briefing and snowmobile driving lesson will be given. Snowmobiles will be shared between 2 (twin riding), with 1 driver and 1 passenger, and the opportunity to swap halfway. Children will be pulled in a sled by the guide's snowmobile. Once you are dressed in your Arctic gear, you will set off into the snowy terrain. 

You will be taken to a beautiful location around the Arctic Circle area, where you will be able to enjoy your first comfortable and effortless ride by snowmobile. Following a circuit, take in the stunning Arctic forest scenery covered in snow. There will be plenty of opportunities to capture photos of the natural beauty, so don't forget your camera! This short but adventurous snowmobile ride will ensure you learn all of the basics and explore the winter wilderness. At the end of the tour, you will return to the starting point in Rovaniemi.

Join this enjoyable and beginner-friendly snowmobile session from Rovaniemi to experience the wintery terrain of Finnish Lapland!

Really good when we got going. Lots of people on the same activity so waiting for each other then time on the snowmobiles and different groups for each ability/confidence level. Only issue was children go on a big seated sledge behind the instructor not their parent which was not clear. They said they had fun but as a parent it was hard to go in a faster group and leave the children with strangers.... not quite the best activity for families with little ones as it's mainly about the children who get towed by staff so you're nto relaxed/together. Good fun though. Nice staff.
