This safari will take you out of Rovaniemi, straight into the Taiga forest and its beautiful nature. Accompanied by your guide, you will explore the beauties of Lapland forest, learn more about the trees, plants, their properties, wildlife... You will also be taught how to use your surroundings to make a fire and some other basic survival skills.
The tour operates all year round, with specific features attached to each season. In the winter time, you will enjoy views of huge snow drifts, white trails and frozen trees, with very cold temperatures that may drop down to -30C! You will learn about the footprints you find around you in the snow: tracks made by wolves, lynx, wolverines, moose, reindeer, weasles, Arctic hare and many more. For Summer and Autumn, the tour is adapted and you may find a separate description of our "Wilderness Survival - Summer & Autumn" in our Summer Tours section.
Refreshments and a typical Finnish barbecue snack will be provided halfway, as your guide will lit a fire to keep you warm. This is a great opportunity for your guide to show you how to build a fire as natives do.
