Days full of adventure and beautiful views await you in Finnish Lapland. All the happiness on earth is on the back of a horse - an attitude to life that will accompany you throughout the journey and will also have a positive long-term impact. For your stay, some trips with the horses are planned, which will take you through the snowy winter landscape in Lapland. Enjoy the wonderful nature and the magic of this place. Take solace in the silence that surrounds you, which is only broken by the sound of your horses' hooves. This trip gives you plenty of time and countless moments to switch off and relax. You have the opportunity to take a trip into the wilderness with the husky sled. Get on the runners and let yourself be drawn into the beautiful and magical nature of the far north. On this tour, you will experience the surroundings from a different, exciting perspective and reconnect with nature. The focus is on training horses and the harmony that can be found in farm life. This also includes training in a loving and considerate relationship with the horses, as well as the basics in keeping and handling. Your experiences during this time will not only consist of rides but also in-depth experiences and a deep connection to these fascinating animals. You will actively be participating in everyday chores such as fetching water or lighting a fire, experiencing a truly authentic way of life in the Nordic wilderness. A way of life which harks back to days of old, without electricity or running water. Make yourself comfortable in your own log cabin and enjoy the silence in this remote location in the forest. In the evening, keep your eyes open, because with a little luck you will see the Northern Lights in the night sky.
Day 6: Departure
Say goodbye to your faithful four-legged companions and start the journey home with many new experiences under your belt! Leave with memories that will last you a lifetime - memories of the best riding adventure in the heart of Finland and a life-long philosophy of living in harmony with nature.
Optional
On this journey, you can also decide whether to swap one of your days of horse-riding activities for an exciting dog sledding experience. Spend a day on sleds with Huskies and get an authentic experience like no other! Effortlessly glide through the wilderness with your eager canine companions, darting through snowy forests and racing across frozen lakes before returning to your cosy cabin.

Additional Information:
The order of tours and activities within this itinerary may vary due to weather conditions and other contributing factors that must be taken into account by the guides when planning your tour. You will receive the exact order of activities once you arrive on site. The far north can have fluctuating and unpredictable weather with very strong temperature differences. The safety of guests and animals comes first, and for this reason, we reserve the right to change the itinerary and intensity of activities if and when needed. This involves both adjustments due to insufficient snow (meaning we cannot drive the sleds) or too much snow (snowstorms and extreme cold can cause accidents and various other problems). The required adjustments and fallback options in rare cases are based on the day-to-day conditions and can be compensated by shorter or longer daily stages, alternative accommodations, or even single day trips. In extremely rare cases we may organise alternative transport (ie. cars, quad bikes, etc). Feel free to contact us if you would like a more detailed assessment of this tour and travel period.The service providers and tour providers always perform their services in compliance with and in accordance with the official requirements and requirements applicable at the time of stay.

Dear all,
I have experienced one of the most beautiful and exciting week of my life enjoying the wilderness. Everything was just perfect, the cabin, the tours, the horse riding and of course my huskies. A very great thank you to Alex and Tinja for the outdoor overnight we had...was concerned about it but it was amazing, highly recommended. Will be back soon....that's sure!
