Expedition 3

Lapland hard

Particularities

Exciting expedition to the Arctic Circle. In five days you will experience everything that the subarctic landscape in northern Europe can offer: Lonely forests, trips on large, frozen lakes, snow fun in the highlands and cozy accommodations. With the snowmobiles it goes up to the 66th degree of latitude and to the mountains near the Norwegian border.

Tour description

You get a seven-day snowmobile tour through the enchanting landscape of Nasafjäll and Vindelfjäll, the largest natural reserve in Europe. During the tour we cross several times the Arctic Circle. Vast ice sheets and quiet sections in the mountains alternate. The route takes us close to the Norwegian border. In fine weather we take some excursions to the peaks of the surrounding mountains. The exact route depends on the weather and snow conditions and can only be determined shortly before departure. For these reasons it is also possible to change the route during the journey. Accommodation is in comfortable hotels and lodges along the route.

You need a total of 9 days with arrival and departure. The tour can be extended or shortened.

Requirements

During stable weather conditions the tour is not difficult. In the highlands strong winds can impede the progress.  Especially after fresh snow the track holding may be not easy. Avalanche prone slopes should be avoided in any case. Participants should be able to drive a snowmobile several hours.

Equipment

Warm protective equipment is provided: helmets, gloves, warm overalls, boots.
