DAY 1 | PARIS / IVALO
Every adventure must start with a full stomach, so we first enjoy our breakfast. Then, it’s gear on and ready to go! Our adventure begins directly from the hotel where the snowmobiles are already waiting. Each guest receives their own bag which is attached to the snowmobiles. Your guide will then review all the driving and safety instructions you need to know for this adventure. We make our way through varied landscapes and speeds along forest trails on our way north. Lunch is enjoyed in a sheltered spot along the way. For some reason, during many previous adventures, the Northern Lights have guided the way to our first overnight accommodation. This isn’t guaranteed, but if you’ve never seen them before, this is the best place to be. Upon arrival at our accommodation, the sauna will be hot. Then we sit down for our evening meal. You will sleep well tonight.
DAY 3 | BEYOND THE BORDER, HEADING TO THE ARCTIC OCEAN (approx. 100-200 km)
After a good breakfast, we set off again on our machines. We will head towards the Norwegian border. On our way to Norway, we will have lunch at the Snow Hotel in Kirkenes. If you want, take a plunge into the Arctic Sea during your visit, just to say you’ve done it! Today’s journey will take you across frozen lakes and marshes, winding roads, and forest trails. A full day of snowmobiling through changing terrains and stunning landscapes. At the chalet, you can once again enjoy a hot sauna and a delicious meal. If you’re feeling brave, you can try the Finnish tradition of rolling in the snow between steams in the sauna.
DAY 4 | HEADING SOUTH (approx. 100-200 km)
After a good breakfast, we turn south and head towards the vast Lake Inari. We take alternate routes and find more thrills. After a while, we arrive at the edge of Lake Inari. Crossing the lake is, for many, one of the highlights of this tour. The powdery snow soars as we speed across the wide-open area. Depending on the weather conditions, we will either stop for lunch indoors or prepare our own delights around a campfire. We will arrive at our hotel in the evening where we will have dinner and relax after another day of adventure.
DAY 5 | THE FINALE (approx. 100-200 km)
After breakfast, we set off for our final day of riding. More beautiful and changing landscapes, winding trails, and stunning terrains await. If you haven’t had the chance to ride in deep snow yet, we’ll make sure you do today. A good indoor lunch will keep us going, and we will reach our final destination in the early evening. Our last evening will be special, celebrating this adventure together over dinner. We will spend the last night in the village of Ivalo, so there will also be a chance to go out if you still have energy.
DAY 6 | IVALO / PARIS
Everything comes to an end, but we hope to see you again soon. You will be picked up at your accommodation for an included airport transfer. Goodbye for now and safe travels!
Flight to Paris on regular Finnair flights.
