About
Leave the last remains of your everyday cares behind you and sit behind the handlebars of a snowmobile. On the snowmobile safari, you will receive a good understanding of the nature of Lapland during the winter. The breathtakingly beautiful landscape of the forest, the powdery snowdrifts, and the trees bowing down under the weight of the snow line your route that takes you comfortably away from the bustle of the village of Levi.
Along the way, we stop to take photographs of the beautiful scenery and to enjoy a hot drink. We may even be joined by a curious Siberian jay that, according to old folk tales, are departed woodsmen…
All snowmobile safaris include an introduction to safe handling and riding as well as an experienced guide.
