Lapland Weekend
Day 1: At 13.00 pm. we pick you up from the airport or your hotel in Kiruna and take you to our homebase (about 15 minutes drive). Here we provide additional winter clothing (overall, winterboots, hat, mittens). After an introduction in "how to drive a snowmobile" you take off for by snowmobile towards our wilderness camps. Two participants share one machine, if you would prefer to drive our own snowmobile it is available against an additional charge. Sauna, dinner and overnight in the camp.
Day 2: After breakfast we pack our stuff and hit the trail again by snowmobile towards our homebase, where lunch will be waiting for you. After lunch you get an introduction into driving a dogsled and "mush" your own team of 4 dogs out to the wilderness again.
Day 3: After breakfast we drive our dogteams back to the homebase, where we again arrive around late lunchtime. If your time schedule allows you, it is possible to visit the famous Icehotel or a little Sami museum in Jukkasjärvi, a village just 6 km away from our homebase. Afterwards, transfer back to the airport / train station and departure.
