What To Expect

Enjoy a private ski trekking adventure by night from Rovaniemi to reach elusive nature areas with no light pollution where Northern lights may be visible. Aurora story telling is included in this great tour. Ski touring is an easy ski discipline designed to let you glide on deep snow off the beaten tracks or groomed trails. The backcountry skis are equipped with a skin allowing to both hike uphill and slide downhill ; they are equally used for long Arctic expeditions or shorter day tours into wild nature. They are the perfect equipment to get to beautiful elusive places that you cannot reach with cars or on foot. Because the tour happens during the night, you will also get a chance to observe the Northern lights! We will always try to adapt the tour to increase the chance of finding auroras; the hike will for example aim at reaching some elusive areas without light pollution and a nice open view to the north. You may then ski through the forests to reach a little hidden lake, or walk up to a hilltop to have a nice view over the horizon. During the tour, your guide will teach you more about Finnish nature, the Northern lights and their explanation.
