Arctic adventure with dogsled and eco-scooter. Polar Circle

Northern Finland and one of Europe's most content-rich food, nature and cultural journey on eco-scooters and dog sledding!

 

8 day program with guide. 6 lodging nights at smaller family-run inns / hotels. The scooter tour starts at the Arctic Circle where the northern lights and crunching snow make the scenery impressively beautiful. Here you will meet our English-speaking Guide who gives us a taste of how to drive a scooter, dog and reindeer sled. We get a clue as to how our great adventure for eight days will come about. Fully dressed, it is time to travel in the arctic wilderness with the scooter. Over glaciers and through forests the road goes towards the Swedish border and the Torne River. There are many wildlife here and we often stop to enjoy the total silence - at an open fire, Tipi for a lovely lunch made by nature's pantry, such as souvas (lightly smoked reindeer thighs), forest mushrooms and almond potatoes.
