Overview

Step into the timeless atmosphere of Lapland on a traditional sleigh ride led by a gentle Finnhorse.

Wrapped in warm blankets, you can settle into the sleigh and enjoy the peaceful rhythm of the horse as you travel through the snowy surroundings. Away from the hurried pace of everyday life, there is time to admire the winter landscape, breathe in the crisp Arctic air and listen to the sound of hooves and sleigh moving across the snow.

The Finnhorse is Finland’s national horse and an important part of the country’s rural heritage. Strong, calm and dependable, these beloved horses have worked alongside Finnish people for generations. During the experience, you will have an opportunity to meet your Finnhorse and discover a small piece of this living tradition.

The unhurried 30-minute ride is suitable for couples, families and guests of all ages.

Come aboard, make yourself comfortable and let a Finnhorse carry you into the quiet magic of the North.

    What To Expect

    We warmly welcome you and tell you the story of Finnhorses. During the introduction, we will get acquainted with the past and present life of the draft horse we use.

    During the sleigh ride (or wagon ride during snowless seasons) we sit down on the reindeer hides and enjoy the ride under the warm blankets. At the end of the ride, in addition to a warm drink, we enjoyed snacks by the campfire.
