Breakfast.

Skiing comes naturally to Finns, and children typically receive their first pair of skis from a young age. In recent years, Finns have found a trendy new way to navigate the snow: snowshoeing. For a beginner, snowshoeing is much easier than skiing. Going uphill and downhill is surprisingly easy and practical as snowshoes float perfectly even on deep snow.

Lunch on your own.

3-course dinner. Overnight stay.

DAY 4 | SAMI CULTURE AND REINDEER HERDING
