Quick tips
What activity is right for you?
Dog Sledding
Dog sledding is one of the most popular winter activities in the region, and with trips limited to four people per sled dog team spaces book up fast, so we suggest booking early to avoid disappointment. Kiruna dog sledding is a particularly popular choice especially when paired with Kiruna Northern Lights watching, but each location has a breathtaking and unique appeal waiting to be discovered.
Northern Lights
The Northern Lights have always been a mystery to people living in Arctic regions, with many adopting myths and legends around the Aurora to explain the spectacular lights dancing in the sky. Now with advances in research and science, much more is understood about the cause, however most still find the experience life-changing and in some cases spiritual.
Snowmobiling
Maybe the most traditional way of transportation in modern day Lapland, Snowmobiling is another must do activity for those looking to get away from civilisation and into the wilderness. There are options for everyone from the beginner, to longer trips for those more confident to take on a bigger adventure.
