Three hours, small group of usually 4 to 6 snowmobiles, from our base in Sinettä, 20 minutes north of Rovaniemi — well away from city lights and busier tourist trails.We start with a warm welcome at our base at 19:00, a proper briefing, and a chance to step inside and get warm. Then we get you kitted out with thermal overalls, boots, helmet and gloves and head out. The first stretch is the training section, but you're already riding. We start slow, make sure everyone feels comfortable on the machine, and pick up the pace as the group settles in.Our destination is a private hill we know well — a vantage point above the treeline, with open views in every direction. At the top is our own kota, a traditional Lappish hut with an open fire in the middle. We grill sausages over the flames, pour a hot drink, and spend a good while there: stepping outside to watch the sky, stepping back in to warm up. The kota is ours, so when we're there, we're on our own.The Northern Lights are never a guarantee, anywhere in Lapland. They depend on solar activity and a clear sky, and both are out of our control. What we can do is give them the best chance: a dark sky, an open horizon, and time to let your eyes adjust. If they appear, you'll be in the right place. If they don't, you've still had a real evening in the Arctic.The snowmobiles are BRP Lynx, built in Rovaniemi. The group stays small, the guide stays with you the whole evening, and your guide takes photos and short videos and emails them to you afterwards.Good to know: Tour conducted in English. Drivers must be at least 20 years old with a valid Category B driving licence. Children welcome from age 8 in the covered sleigh.
First Tracks — Morning Snowmobile Tour from Sinettä, Rovaniemi (3h, small group)
Our most popular tour, and a good place to start.Morning snowmobile safari with a local expert guideLocation: Sinettä wilderness, 20 min north of RovaniemiSmall group: 4–6 snowmobilesBeginner-friendly · Family-friendlyFree city pickup, photos, and coffee, tea and pulla includedWe start from our base in Sinettä, 20 minutes north of Rovaniemi. It's a small village surrounded by the kind of forest, lakes, rivers and hills that most tours never reach. If you've already been on a snowmobile somewhere closer to the city centre, you'll notice the difference within the first kilometre: fewer tracks, more space, and trails that actually go somewhere. And hardly anyone else but us out there.What the day looks likeEvery tour begins with a proper briefing — what the weather and conditions look like today, how the snowmobiles work, how we ride together as a group, and how we communicate on the trail. Then we get going. The first stretch is the training session, but you're already riding — we start slow, make sure everyone feels comfortable on the machine, and pick up the pace as the group settles in.From there we ride a mix of terrain: forest trails winding between snow-loaded spruce, open sections across frozen lakes, climbs up to viewpoints, and softer snow where it's safe to play a little. We stop along the way for photos, a hot drink, and whatever the day happens to offer — snow, scenery, animal tracks, sometimes a reindeer in the distance.If you're two on a double snowmobile, you can switch drivers at the breaks. If you'd rather have your own machine the whole way, book the Single snowmobile option (+60 € per person). Kids and anyone under 140 cm ride in the covered sledge behind the guide.Why this tour, and why usUsually 4–6 snowmobiles in the group. If you can see twenty other snowmobiles in front, you aren't with us.Our guides aren't reading from a script. Most of them have been riding these forests since they were kids and instructing for decades — the kind of quiet competence that means you can relax and just enjoy the ride. They take photos and short videos along the way and send the whole batch to the group by email after the tour. No upsell, no "premium photo package".The snowmobiles are BRP Lynx, built in a modern factory 20 minutes from where we ride. They're the machines locals actually choose for this terrain.
