Using specialist skis that let you leave the marked tracks and head into deep snow, you explore quiet wilderness away from the crowds.

There is also time to relax by a campfire with light snacks and warm drinks.

Backcountry skiing has long been an eco-friendly way of getting around in the Arctic. On this tour you learn the basics of this winter sport, then step onto specialist skis designed for exploring the Finnish wilderness and leave the known tracks for deep snow. Thanks to their skin-based material, you can move freely across Lapland's snow-covered backcountry. With luck, you may even spot wildlife.
Your professional photographer guide shares knowledge about landscape and nature photography so you can take the photos you want. A few edited photos of your experience are also sent to you.
During the journey, the group finds a place to make a fire and prepares light snacks over an outdoor fire pit. Warm drinks are also served to keep you warm even on the coldest days. After the experience you return to the Levi meeting point, and drop-off at your accommodation can be arranged if needed.
