Cross-country skiing in Lapland (7 days)

Lapland is certainly among the best cross-country skiing areas in the world. There are many different type of routes of various profiles and a network of hundreds of kilometres of tracks, where you can enjoy the soft landscape at your preferred pace or really test your limits on more demanding routes. On top of that, the skiing season is very long, lasting from the beginning of December all the way until the end of April. Tracks will be chosen separately to suit your group's wishes and skiing skills. The program includes skiing every day, but can be modified according to visitors’ wishes to have an alternative program or combine skiing with some other activities.

On the first 2 days, we will ski on the tracks around the hills of Rovaniemi. There (the first 2 nights), the accommodation is in a traditional Finnish cottage*, situated on the shore of lake Kontojärvi, in the heart of Arctic nature, 45 KM North of Rovaniemi.

Then, on days 4,5 and 6, we will ski next to the resorts of Ylläs and Levi - famous for their cross-country skiing possibilities. Ylläs has 330 KM of maintained tracks while Levi has 230 KM, with an equal share of easy, intermediate and difficult tracks.

The accommodation is in a Finnish log house**, in the area of Ylläs, 230 KM North of Rovaniemi.

The last night will be spent in a Bed and Breakfast at a walking distance from the centre of Rovaniemi.

I will accompany you during the whole journey and will take you to the most suitable tracks according to your ability and will. I can also offer technical advices as well as physical training to the participatns who wish so. This program is suitable for beginners, intermediate as well as for advanced cross-country skiers.
