Please be advised that children aged 4-12 are seated in a sledge behind the guide’s snowmobile. If the child is 13 or 14 years old and measures less than 140 cm (4'5") and is not capable of sitting safely on the snowmobile, s/he will be seated in the sledge.

We highly recommend that a parent or guardian sit with small children in the sledge for the child’s comfort and safety. If a child over 140 cm (4'5") wishes to sit in a snowmobile as a passenger, a full adult price will be charged (according to availability).

Schitterende natuur, hele mooie belevenis, jammer dat er geen Noorderlicht was, maar desondanks een aparte ervaring, 's avonds op een sneeuwscooter.

Très bonne soirée, on a fait de la motoneige dans des endroit facile d’accès et on a eu la chance de voir des aurores boréales sur le retour , plus une petite pause gourmande au coin du feu.
