Embark on a journey through the wilderness, far from the ordinary. The Snowtrain will take you through mysterious forests and fields to a secret spot where a Lappish hut awaits. Step outside and let the soft sounds of the woods inspire your imagination; see how nature looks in the pale moonlight, and watch the stars fill the sky with their brilliance. Apukka’s knowledgeable guides reveal the secrets of the Arctic night! Gather around a crackling campfire, enjoy light snacks and a hot drink, and feel like a true explorer. With a bit of luck, you might even catch a glimpse of the magical Aurora!
This tour is organized in all weather conditions. When the skies are clear, our Northern Lights campsite offers optimal chances to see the Auroras. During cloudy weather, we highlight other aspects of the Arctic night.
