Lapland Weekend | 4 days

We will be waiting for you at the airport of Rovaniemi. Once we have made our introduction, we are headed to Santa and his winter village. Here you can walk around and cross the Arctic Circle! But of course, you can also meet the man himself!

1.1 Arriving at Långforsen

Now it is time to head to our traditional Långforsen Lappkåtan where you will be guided to your room to unpack and come to rest after your flight.

You are always welcome for a drink in the bar or go for a walk. Extra optional activities are also available on site.

1.2 Snowshoeing

we can drop you off on a good place for snowshoeing or you can start at Långforsen. You will get the right instructions on how to walk with snowshoes. It is up to you and your own pace, because snowshoeing can be quite intensive.

The evening ends with dinner in the restaurant.

( Be aware that the visit to Santa Claus village is depending on your flight times, for advise please contact us )

After breakfast we discover the beautiful forests of Swedish Lapland by snowmobile. There is a good chance that we will spot reindeer or moose on our way. The snowmobile tour is private in your own company with a guide. (A driver’s license B is required to drive a snowmobile). After a campfire coffee stop we return to Långforsen. 

2.1 Reindeer Visit

In the afternoon we drive to a local reindeer herder. You will be given a tour of the reindeer corral where the reindeer herder will tell you about the reindeer and reindeer herding. They give you the chance to spoil the reindeer with their favorite candy from the forest. Test your skills in throwing a lasso before a Swedish-Sámi fika over an open fire.

After saying goodbye to the sweet reindeer, we drive back through the beautiful nature of the border of Swedish and Finnish Lapland.

The evening ends with dinner in the restaurant.

We start the day with a delicious breakfast in our Kåtan where you get the opportunity to try on the thermal overalls for the activities. After breakfast you go on a Husky sleigh ride in the forests of Swedish Lapland. After the activity you will enjoy a lunch prepared with local products.

2.1 Wilderniss Spa

Relax in the afternoon in our wood-fired sauna by the river, after which you can take a dip in the snow or icy water. Connected to the wood fired sauna, there is an extra relax room to change clothes and have some drinks and snacks by the stove. 

Optionally, you can choose for our Finnish smoke sauna. (This is a unique experience in a black and dark wood fired sauna. This sauna has no chimney and needs more than 5 hours to warm up and get rid of the smoke through the door and windows.)

The 2 saunas are located by the river and the campfire on a quiet spot in nature. We will have an ice hole prepared for you to try out ice fishing on the river.We provide some included local tapas at the sauna, as well as bathrobes and sauna towels. You can order some optional drinks in the bar to take with you.

The evening ends with dinner in the restaurant.

After an unforgettable trip in Swedish Lapland we will drive you back to the airport in Finland. We will provide you if needed an early breakfast depending on your flight time. If you’re flight is later in the day you can enjoy some free time at our place or make a walk in the village.

When the timing and weather conditions are right, we can go and look at the magical Aurora Borealis. We go out and hunt for the perfect viewing location, this can be by car, snowmobile and sleigh, walk, … .

The perfect opportunity to get a stunning photo.

Since Långforsen is located near the Arctic Circle, we have a good chance of witnessing strong dancing northern lights!

( There is a big chance you can see it during your stay. However, this can never be guaranteed )
