On arrival in Kittila, transfer to Harriniva in time for evening dinner before spending the night in cosy rooms at the centre. The following morning the action begins as you head off to meet your husky team. After packing your sled and a full briefing on mushing it's time to hold on tight and release the brake. You will set of at an exhilarating speed and can expect to travel approximately 20-25km each day, passing through snow laden forests and across frozen marshes and lakes enjoying hearty campfire lunches along the way.
On arrival at the wilderness cabin at the end of an exciting day of mushing, you will need to take care of your dogs before settling back to enjoy a sauna and delicious dinner. With luck you may experience the aurora borealis, the northern lights, in the dark skies of the wilderness before spending a cosy night in a rustic cabin far from lifes modern conveniences.
After breakfast you will continue your safari, returning to Harriniva in the afternoon for a final night in Lapland, before flying home the following day with unforgettable memories.
Final Night Upgrade Option
Enhance your winter adventure by swapping your traditional accommodation for an Aurora Dome Glamping Experience and spend your final night in Lapland under the Arctic night skies.
