Stop 1

Enjoy dinner around the crackling fire in the tipi just outside the beautiful Máttaráhkká Lodge. During the dinner, we can sometimes snap great photos of the northern lights since the lodge and the tipi are away from most of the light pollution.

Through the dark night, you will be driving easy maneuver snowmobiles and experiencing the true Lapland dream on unique "off-the-map trails". On top of the mountain, we serve hot beverages and wait for the Northern Lights to show up and dance for us in the night sky. The guide will take photographs of you, hopefully with a backdrop of amazing lights.

Dinner is included in the tour and will be served in the tipi before or after the tour, depending on the aurora activity.

Note: The driver needs to have a valid driving license.
