Today is a day you've probably been anticipating for a while, and it's dedicated to the region's most enthusiastic residents - the huskies. October-November departures 07/10/27, 21/10/27, and 18/11/27: In autumn and early winter, visit a local husky farm for a wagon ride through the forest. A professional musher guides the eager dogs on a 4-kilometer journey lasting approximately 20 to 30 minutes, with up to four guests seated per wagon. After the ride, gather inside a traditional kota hut to enjoy warm berry juice while listening to stories about life with huskies in the Arctic. Please note: The wagon ride is weather dependent. On warmer days above approximately 7C, the dogs cannot run and the experience becomes a farm visit only. The remainder of the day is at leisure. Optional reindeer or snowmobile safaris may be available, depending on the conditions. Dinner is served at the hotel restaurant. December-April departures 02/12/27, 1/01/28, 11/01/28, 08/02/28, 07/03/28, and 04/04/28: In true winter until early spring, we'll set out on a traditional 5-kilometer husky sleigh safari through Levi's snow-filled forests. Each two-person sled is driven by one guest, offering a hands-on Arctic experience as your team glides across frozen trails. The dogs run eagerly, the sled skims over snow, and the forest stretches silent and white around you - it's an unforgettable way to experience Lapland's winter landscape. The remainder of the day is free to relax or join optional Arctic activities such as reindeer or snowmobile safaris, weather permitting. Dinner is served at the hotel restaurant. All departures: Come evening, the focus turns from the forest floor to the sky above, as we head out in search of the Northern Lights on an Aurora Hunting safari in the wilderness (3 hours, weather permitting). We first head north on a round trip, passing by either Jerisjarvi or Ounasjoki, wherever the Northern Lights are more likely to appear that night. The Aurora Expedition travels in comfort by bus, stopping along the way to take photographs as you continue to the shore of Lake Akaslompolo. Experience the magic of the Northern Lights in a serene and unforgettable setting. If the evening is completely calm, you might even hear the whispers of the Aurora. Note: The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon, and their visibility is subject to weather conditions. ...
