EXTRAORDINARY ACCOMMODATION
Special occasion requires a special accommodation. A night in a glass igloo or in a tree house, under the blazing northern lights, is for sure one to remember.
NORTHERN LIGHTS
These days, many people believe auroras have a beneficial effect on fertility. This belief has probably been influenced by the undeniable fact that spending a night under the Northern Lights is by far the most romantic way to spend your holiday.
HUSKY SAFARI
Tour the Arctic like never before. You and your loved one can experience traveling off the beaten path with a tailored safari complete with tour guide and eight wagging tales. For the particularly adventurous sort, step up to the chance to be a musher and control your own team of dogs across the Lappish countryside.
REINDEER RIDE
Gliding through a snowy forest in a wooden sleigh together – what could be more romantic? Rides usually last from 10 minutes to a few hours. Speeds stay moderate, which makes them suitable for all ages.
SAUNA
The most important thing is to relax, socialise, have a couple of drinks and enjoy the blissful post-sauna feeling of having cleaned both your body and your mind.
ICE SWIMMING
It might sound shocking but take the plunge together. Quite simply, the secret of dipping into icy water lies in the feeling that surges through your body once you get out of the water. As soon as you’re back on dry land your circulation kicks in and your body starts to warm up.
RELAX
After running around in the snow all day long, you can cozy back indoors. There is nothing like sitting by the fireplace together with a cup of hot chocolate, enjoying the magical winter scenery.
NATIONAL PARKS
For many Finnish couples, escaping to nature is the perfect way to relax and celebrate their new life together. Snowshoeing is a great way to experience Finland’s wintry wildernesses, enjoy the fresh and clean air and get some exercise. Join a guided hike in one of our national parks or do a little adventure on your own, just the two of you.
SNOWMOBILE
Driving through a silvery forest on a beast of a machine gives a rush that gets people hooked. The best way to get into snowmobiling is to take a guided tour. If heading out unguided, make sure you’re familiar with the route and can properly handle your vehicle.
