Set in the northern reaches of Finnish Lapland, Arctic nature trips Ltd Oy offers a one-hour horseback trail ride that delivers a quiet and refreshing encounter with Finland’s pristine wilderness. Based in Simo, a small municipality known for its sprawling boreal forests and peaceful rural charm, this experience invites riders of all ages and skill levels to connect with nature aboard friendly, well-trained horses.
The ride follows private forest trails away from the usual tourist bustle, allowing guests to move at a gentle pace through ancient pines and spruces dappled with moss and lichen. The forest floor, soft with layers of pine needles and fallen leaves, cushions the horses’ footsteps, while the scent of fresh pine and earth fills the air. In this remote corner of Lapland, it’s common to spot silent wildlife such as red squirrels or a curious woodpecker tapping overhead.

Children as young as four can participate, either riding alongside a parent or guided by an expert, making it an inviting outdoor adventure for families seeking something off the beaten path. After the ride, participants gather at the cozy farmstead to enjoy warm coffee or tea, a quiet moment that caps off the connection to this tranquil landscape.
This ride stands out in Lapland’s outdoor scene by its authentic focus on sustainability and quiet enjoyment—no crowds, no noise—just the rhythm of horsehooves and the gentle forest ambience.
