Top Highlights

  • Arctic CircleSix days on snowshoes in Finnish Lapland, where the sun barely clears the horizon in January and the forest is completely silent.
  • Pyhä-LuostoTykky is snow that loads onto the spruces until they bend into shapes — a metre or more of it on a single tree.
  • PyhätunturiIsokuru is the deepest gorge in Finland and in winter it is a slot of packed snow with the light coming in sideways.

Did this over 6 days and it was the best walking I've done in years. No complaints about any of the hotels — all of them well placed. Meals were good throughout and the vegetarian options weren't an afterthought. Good value for what's included.

Finnish Lapland in the right season is something else, and the team knew exactly where to camp.

Long transfer at both ends that isn't obvious from the listing. Budget a day either side. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing.

Second trek with this operator and they've kept the standard up. No complaints about any of the hotels — all of them well placed. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it. Would book with them again.
