Swedish Frontier

THE EXPERIENCE

Your day in the north.

This one’s for the snowmobile enthusiasts. If a full day at the handlebars sounds like your kind of holiday, come with us—we’re heading for Sweden!

We’ll ride out from Äkäslompolo towards the border, stopping for a meal and a chance to warm up before making our way down to the river. Across the ice we go, and up the other side into Sweden. There’s something rather satisfying about visiting our neighbours by snowmobile.

Then comes a chance to try powder riding, feeling how the machine moves through deeper snow. With your own snowmobile and our guide leading the way, there’s plenty to get stuck into before we turn for home. A proper day out for people who love to ride.

Included in your experience

• Guided snowmobile safari
• Snowmobile and fuel
• Jacket, bib pants, mittens and boots
• Third-party liability insurance

Our winter safari season runs from 1 December to 31 March. Early December departures depend on snow conditions; each tour’s planned days and starting dates are shown in the schedule.
