Two exciting excursions for you to try on holiday
Skiing and snowshoeing through the Arctic snowscapes.
When visitors think of a holiday in Lapland, images of Father Christmas, husky-sledding and Northern Lights spring to mind. This region was made for cross-county skiing and snowshoeing too, however. The snow is pristine, you’ll find fewer crowds than mainland Europe’s big resorts and the snowscapes are stunning. Both sports are a great way to travel at your own speed and getting to see Lapland at its finest.
Cross-country skiing, also known as Nordic skiing, is a great way to explore your local surroundings on holiday. A good sense of balance is required for cross-country skiing so if you’re looking for a simpler activity, snowshoeing is ideal. All you need is a little snow to start exploring. The snowshoes do take a bit of getting used to but overall, the sport is fun, calm and a simple way to soak up Lapland's wilderness.
