Night Snowmobile Safari in Search of the Northern Lights, Rovaniemi
Riding a snowmobile at night is a specific pleasure: the trail ahead lit by one headlight and whatever the moon is doing, the forest black on both sides, and nothing else in front of you for a long way. The trails run well clear of the city lights, which is what gives the aurora a chance. With decent weather and some luck, it shows up while you are out there.
What's included
- Guidance is in English, other languages on request
- Use of thermal clothing during the safari (thermal overall, boots, gloves, woolen socks, a scarf and helmets)
- Short stops throughout the tour to take photos of the beautiful scenery
- Warm drink
