Northern Lights Sled Safari & Pancakes in the Wilderness

Home | Experience | Northern Lights Sled Safari & Pancakes in the Wilderness

About this experience

Bundle up and climb onto a snowmobile-pulled sled as we glide into the Arctic wilderness.

There’s something special about slipping through a snow-hushed Lapland forest at night — the stars sharp overhead, the cold air carrying the scent of birch and pine, and the quiet broken only by the hum of the snowmobile and the runners on the snow.

Deep in the wilderness we stop at a kota. Together we cook Finnish pancakes over an open fire and share stories and folklore about the Northern Lights — what they mean, why they dance, and how generations of Sámi and Finnish people have read them in the sky. You’ll hear why the aurora is never guaranteed, and why that’s exactly what makes every sighting feel like a gift.

No Northern Lights? No problem. A crackling fire, hot drinks, sweet pancakes and a still Arctic night are already an experience you won’t forget. But if the sky decides to perform, that’s the cherry on the cake.

Unhurried and intimate, this is the opposite of a crowded aurora bus tour. The gentle sled ride suits all ages, making it a perfect evening for families and small groups who want the wilderness to themselves.
