Chasing the lights...
Take the throttle yourself and drive a full hour through snow-blanketed forest and frozen trails on the outskirts of Rovaniemi — all gear and guiding included.
Few things capture the thrill of the Arctic like driving your own snowmobile across the frozen landscape. On this one-hour safari you do exactly that — a full hour on the trail, not a quick loop around a yard.
After a hands-on safety briefing from your guide, you set off in a convoy through quiet pine forest and over snow-covered tracks, with the guide leading the whole way. The pace is relaxed and suited to first-timers, so no previous experience is needed — just a sense of adventure and a valid driving licence.
All of the winter gear is provided, and we collect you straight from your accommodation in Rovaniemi, so you can simply turn up ready to ride.
Real trail time behind the handlebars — an hour out in the forest, not a short practice loop.
Drive your own sled at your own pace, with the guide leading a route built for first-timers.
Weave through snow-laden pines and open white clearings on the edge of Rovaniemi.
Thermal overall, boots, gloves, balaclava and helmet — all provided and warm.
Door-to-door transfers from your Rovaniemi accommodation, there and back.
A professional guide briefs you, leads the trail and keeps the group together.
This is a full one-hour driving safari on the trail — not a short practice loop. After a safety briefing you ride out through the Lapland forest and back with your guide leading the way.
Yes — the person driving must hold a valid driving licence (held with them on the day) and be at least 18. Passengers and children can ride along in the same snowmobile with no licence needed.
None at all. Your guide gives a full briefing on the controls and trail rules before you set off, and the route is chosen to suit first-time riders.
We provide the full winter gear — thermal overall, boots, gloves, balaclava and helmet. Just wear warm base layers underneath and bring a hat and your own gloves if you like.
Pickup is from your Rovaniemi accommodation; the exact time is confirmed when you book. From there it is a short transfer to the trailhead.

A full hour of actual driving, not ten minutes on a car park loop. The guide gave a clear briefing, the trail through the forest was stunning and the thermal suits kept us warm the whole time.
First time on a snowmobile and it was easier than I expected. We drove in pairs, swapped halfway, and the scenery was pure Lapland. Pickup from the hotel was right on time.
Great fun and well organised. All the gear was provided so we just turned up. Would have loved an even longer route but the hour flew by.
