Experience the magic of Finnish Lapland in winter as you enjoy a secluded stay in a sleek, timber-clad pod at the Arctic TreeHouse hotel, tucked away on a forested slope just outside of Rovaniemi – right on the edge of the Arctic Circle. From here, you’ll enjoy hearty Lappish cuisine at the superb Rakas Restaurant and explore the snow-cloaked wilderness on an exhilarating husky safari and a night time snowmobile ride in search of the Northern Lights. Throughout, you’ll also have complimentary use of toboggans, snowshoes and an ice skating track, enabling you to fill your time with a whole host of optional winter activities.
On arrival in Rovaniemi, the gateway to Finnish Lapland, a private transfer will bring you to Arctic TreeHouse Hotel – your home for the next three nights. Here, you'll be staying in a sleek, timber-clad pod on a forested hillside just a whisker away from the Arctic Circle. Each pod has north-facing floor-to-ceiling windows, offering the chance to observe the Northern Lights from the warmth and comfort of your stylish accommodation. Once you've settled in, enjoy your first hearty Lappish dinner at the superb Rakas Restaurant.

Ready yourself for an action-packed day ahead with a hearty breakfast. You’ll then head to a local husky farm, spending some time getting to know these lovable furry creatures before you try your hand at ‘mushing’ (the art of driving a husky sled) as you glide through the enchanting, snow-cloaked wilderness. Later on, after some time to rest and recharge back at base, you’ll swap the sled for a snowmobile, cruising out along woodland trails in exhilarating fashion with your guide leading the way as you head to an optimal viewing spot for the Northern Lights. Enjoy some Lappish snacks and hot drinks as you grill sausages over a roaring fire while waiting for the Northern Lights to make an appearance. With a little luck, you'll get to see this majestic phenomenon illuminating the night sky.

After breakfast, you’ll have the whole day free to enjoy a range of optional excursions. Perhaps you'll go for a thrilling ride on the nearby toboggan hill, or for a somewhat calmer experience, go for a snowshoe hike in the forest. An easily accessible route will bring you to the viewpoint at the top of Syväsenvaara Hill, from which you’ll be met by wonderful panoramas overlooking Rovaniemi and the surrounding nature. There’s also an ice skating track on-site which you’re welcome to use free of charge. You could also enjoy a traditional Sami reindeer experience, immerse yourself in festive cheer at Santa Claus Village, or head into the city of Rovaniemi itself to check out the local bars, restaurants and museums. The choice is entirely yours.
