Full day snowshoeing trip - Arctic Horizons

Breath taking sceneries guaranteed !
This full day snowshoe hike is devised for those who want to experience Lapland at its best, and who are not afraid of walking 4-5 hours (not counting the breaks), sometimes in demanding conditions ! We'll walk the mountains, cross the frozen swamps, roam through the arctic forests!

I pick you in the morning from the location of your choice in Luosto, and we drive to the starting point of our hike. The whole trip happens in the beautiful landscapes of the Pyhä-Luosto national park and its fell area. For lunch, we will have a break at a forest camp, and enjoy a warm soup, some grilled sausages by the fire (washed down with a glass of delicious crowberry wine), and black pot coffee with traditional pastry, before continuing our hike. We should end our trip sometimes in the afternoon. During this hike, we will cross all kinds of arctic landscapes, from the Lappish fells to the boreal forests, and we will have good chance to see some arctic wildlife.

The guide will provide to each participant a small thermos with some hot juice, some snacks, and his/her cutlery for the lunch break. Therefore everyone should have his/her own backpack for the trip. (take also an extra layer for keeping warm during the break!)
DURATION : 6+ hours the snow conditions can affect the duration of the trip... (around 4,5 h of effective walking)
WALKING DISTANCE : Around 10 km (it corresponds to around 15-25km by foot depending on the snow condition).
INCLUDES : private guide services, snowshoeing equipment, lunch and snacks, forest skis, and maybe even some sweat!

Arctic Horizons is a small (actually one man!) company, offering private guided outdoor activities in Luosto, Lapland, since 2005.
