Description

Embark on a private snowshoe hike in Riisitunturi National Park, Lapland, Finland, where you’ll explore magical winter landscapes with a knowledgeable local guide. Choose to meet at the park gate or enjoy included transfers from Ruka or Kuusamo, making your adventure accessible and stress-free.

Your journey begins as you step into the enchanting snow-covered forests, following marked trails or forging your own path through untouched powder, depending on conditions. Marvel at the park’s iconic “snow monsters”—trees blanketed in heavy snow—while your guide shares fascinating insights into Arctic nature and local life.

This private experience is tailored completely to your preferences, from a gentle stroll to a more invigorating trek, covering 4 to 8 kilometers on moderately easy terrain. No previous snowshoeing experience is needed, and the tour duration ranges from 3 to 6 hours, including transfers and hiking time.

Flexible start times let you choose between the soft blue light of January mornings, the growing sunlight of February, or the vibrant spring conditions of March. Early birds can catch sunrise, while afternoon departures treat you to the golden hues of sunset over pristine snow.

All necessary gear, including snowshoes and poles, is provided, and headlamps are available for twilight hikes. Enjoy a cozy campfire break with a wild berry drink and snack, and rest easy knowing a tree is planted for every campfire. Book now to secure your spot and experience the winter wonder of Riisitunturi!
