Arctic Water Experience

The experience begins with a 30-minute theory session covering ice safety, how to identify risks, and how to read different ice conditions.

You then dress in drysuits and head out to the frozen lake for the practical training, which lasts 1–1.5 hours depending on conditions and group size.

On the ice, you practice how to react if the ice breaks, and learn techniques for saving yourself and helping a friend out of the water.

For those who want an extra challenge, there is an option to repeat the self-rescue practice in your own outdoor clothing instead of a drysuit — be prepared to get fully wet, including your shoes.

The experience ends with a sauna.

What to wear

Bring warm, comfortable clothing (2–4 layers) to wear underneath the drysuit provided, plus a warm hat that can get wet.

For the optional challenge

If you want to try the self-rescue practice without a drysuit, bring separate clothes and shoes for it — everything will get wet, including shoes.

For the sauna

The session ends with a sauna, so pack a towel and swimsuit.
