Husky hike Finland: The itinerary

Day 1: Arrival
At the airport, you will be met and taken to the Hotel Iso Syöte in Syöte National Park. A breathtaking view awaits you on the way to the hotel and gives you a taste of the fantastic nature that will surround you in the days to come. Relax in your cosy hotel room and let the day fade away.

Day 2 - Day 7: Summer activities in Finnish Lapland
Strengthen yourself each morning with a hearty breakfast and start each of these eventful days with vigour! Many new experiences and adventures are waiting for you and the summer holds countless surprises!

Enjoy a canoe trip on the Pärjänjoki River; canoe in pairs along with a guide who will show you the beautiful nature of the north. Enjoy the silence, which is interrupted only by the paddle in the water and marvel at the unique landscape that passes by you. During this tour, you will have a break on the shore and enjoy your lunch by an open fire. Once you have finished your excursion, you will be transferred back to the hotel. Round off this beautiful day in the spa and use the sauna or the pool to relax.

A Nordic walking tour takes you into the surrounding nature and keeps you active during your trip to Finland. This type of hike originated in Finland and uses 90% of the muscles in your body; a great way to keep healthy and to see different landscapes. Your guide will always be by your side, showing you the way and helping you to understand all about this beautiful country. The route takes you through the Syöte National Park past lakes, rivers and through green forests. Back in the hotel, you will have time to unwind and relax your muscles in the sauna.

The exciting Husky hike is imminent. Friendly and fascinating dogs welcome you at the Husky Farm and look forward to spending the day with you! They will give you an unforgettable experience on this day; each guest will be assigned a Husky who will accompany them on the hike. Start the husky hiking tour with a small backpack and dive into the vast forests of Lapland. Today's tour takes you some 12km to 15km through breathtaking nature and past impressive views. During this trip, relax around the campfire for lunch and build a bond with your husky. In the afternoon you will return to the Huskyfarm and with a heavy heart, you have to say goodbye to your four-legged companion after this wonderful Husky trekking experience.

You can expect a fishing adventure: in the small rivers and lakes in the area, there are countless small fish that frolic in the currents. The equipment will be prepared for you and you can look forward to a relaxing day. By car, you will go into the forest, and from there you will take a short hike to your fishing spot. Above all, enjoy the silence that surrounds you and the beautiful nature in the national park. A campfire invites you to relax and have a coffee. Back at the hotel, you will have some free time, which you can use for further explorations or relaxation.
