If you take a trip to Finnish Lapland or Northern Norway you may be fortunate enough to see the Northern Lights. Many hotels will advise on the best locations and times to see them and will even arrange a wake-up call to tell you if the lights appear. For the ultimate Northern lights experience you can stay in a luxurious glass igloo where you are able to enjoy a 360 degree view of this impressive display should it appear.
There are many activities on offer. Take a leisurely reindeer sleigh ride through beautiful Finnish Lapland or a longer safari into the wilderness to be greeted by your traditional Sami hosts in a tepee style tent where you can try out the local cuisine. Husky safaris are also available. After a brief introduction and training session you will set off with your sleigh through the scenic snow filled forests, frozen lakes and rivers. There are various routes and durations to choose from.
You could also explore the area on foot on one of the many winter walking paths which have been specially cleared. Snow shoes are available for hire if you want to get off the beaten track. Snow shoe walks are also available, guided by experts. Should you wish to try out cross country skiing then modern lightweight skis are also available for hire. You will set out on well prepared trails through beautiful scenery. Instruction is provided for beginners and some trails are lit at night.
If you want a breath-taking way to explore the scenic landscape you can take a snowmobile safari. Thermal suits, boots and gloves are provided. Full instruction is given and is available to adults who hold a full driving licence. Tailor made trips are available as well as evening trips in search of the Northern Lights.
All the family will enjoy taking a December break to visit Santa in his workshop in magical Lapland. There are many additional snow themed activities for you to choose from. Also an excellent pre-Christmas break for couples.
