Rovaniemi is the capital city of the magical Lapland region, located in the north of Finland. This area is characterised by its stunning scenery, with secluded forest trails, mountains and lakes. During the winter months, the region is blanketed under snow and ice, creating a beautiful white wonderland. Snowmobiling is the perfect way to discover these remote areas of Rovaniemi!
The tour begins by meeting your experienced guide at the starting point in Rovaniemi. The guide will go through a safety briefing and driving lesson for snowmobiling. You will be driving in pairs, one driver and one passenger on each snowmobile, with the opportunity to switch places during the trip. The group sizes are small and the speed and the length of the excursion will depend on each group. Therefore, these excursions are suited for families as well as for those who are looking for a real adrenaline boost. Children will sit in a sled pulled by the guide's snowmobile.
Once you receive your equipment, you will set off driving into the snowy forest! Due to the landscape, a reduced speed is held during parts of the tour. You will love the adventure of snowmobiling through the beautiful nature of the Arctic Circle. The snowmobile trail will take you along stunning routes in Rovaniemi, deep into the wilderness. Once you have mastered the techniques, you will return to the starting point.
