Action-packed holiday in one of the best Aurora destinations in Lapland! Revontulet – the Finnish word for the Northern Lights – translates as “fox fires”. The firefox is a mythical and elusive creature of the north coveted by hunters.

As it runs along the fells, the fox’s flaming tail whips crystals of snow into the sky and the fur scratches the trees, setting the skies on fire. Legend has it that a person who catches the firefox would be rich and famous beyond belief.

This package has been created to maximize your chances to catch this magical phenomena. In addition, you get to experience other winter activities such as snowmobiling, husky safari, and visit to a local reindeer herder.

The location, just 5 minutes from the Sami village of Inari, makes this high-end resort the perfect starting point to immerse oneself in Sami culture. Inari offers an exquisite blend of quality accommodation amidst pristine nature and Arctic activities.

Husky safari is a ‘must do’ experience when visiting Lapland. You will be taught how to handle the sled before you head out for the husky safari, where the huskies will pull your sled through the beautiful winter scenery. Enjoy the excitement of the dogs before the start, and the serene silence once they get to do what they love – run in the snowy scenery. You will have lunch before or after the activity, and the musher will also show you around the husky farm. All our husky safaris are based on two people sharing a sled unless otherwise stated.

Reindeer Farm Visit
