We'll pick you up directly from your accommodation in Rovaniemi and head to a peaceful natural area, where the experience begins with a guided snowshoe hike paced to suit the whole group, so everyone can enjoy it comfortably regardless of previous experience.
After the hike, we'll move to our private base by a lake, home to a traditional Lappish sauna and a wooden kota. Our guide will explain how the Finnish sauna works and why it's such an essential part of daily life in Finland. You'll have around an hour in the sauna — ideal for relaxing the body and warming up after the hike.
While you enjoy the sauna, the guide will start preparing a Lappish BBQ in the kota, with traditional makkarat (Finnish sausages) and hot drinks, creating a cosy atmosphere around the fire.
Throughout the experience, the guide will share stories, trivia and details about life in Finland and Lapland, so you not only experience an authentic Lappish day but also come away understanding the culture and way of life better.
After the meal, we'll return to Rovaniemi and drop you back at your accommodation.
