Northern Lights Slege Ride from Inari to the Muotkatunturi Wilderness Reserve

Embark on a unique winter escapade into the wild landscapes of Finnish Lapland on this Northern Lights snowmobile-pulled slege ride from Inari to the Muotkatunturi Wilderness Reserve! Located between Inari and Karijasjoki, the Muotkatunturi is a 1570 square kilometre area with no clearly marked paths, far from any big city and their light pollution. Thanks to this strategic placement, the Northern Lights shine bright in the sky whenever they make their appearance in the Muotkatunturi Wilderness Reserve, and making a joruney to observe them with seasoned experts is the perfect way to complete a trip to Finnish Lapland.

On the day of your Northern Lights excursion from Inari, you'll need to arrive at the meeting point in the Muotkan Ruoktu cottages to meet your expert Munay Experience instructor. Your instructor will welcome you to the area, tell you exactly how the activity will work, and list a few safety recommendations to keep in mind throughout the night. Then, it's time to gear up with the thermal suit, snow boots, and gloves. Once you're ready, it's time to go!

Your expert instructor will drive a quiet, modern snowmobile and pull the sledge behind them. They'll take you deep into the Muotkatunturi Wilderness Reserve and toward the best places to observe the Northern Lights, which they know by heart. Now, the Northern Lights are a completely natural phenomenon, so your instructor can't guarantee that you'll see them throughout the experience. However, they will do their best to take you to the darkest places in the reserve, where, even if the lights are feeble, you'll be able to see them. When you return to the original meeting point, you'll get to enjoy a hot cup of tea by the crackling wood fire and reminisce about the incredible experience you just had!

Keep in mind that the temperature in the Arctic can vary between 5 and -30 degrees Celsius (41 to -22 Fahrenheit), which means that even with the winter suit you'll borrow from your instructor, you'll need to be ready for the cold. You should bring thermal or wool underlayers, wool or fleece middle layers, and a windproof and waterproof jacket to wear under the suit if necessary. You should also prepare with a hat, a scarf, gloves, and anything else you might need (medication, snacks, etc.) to spend an amazing 3 hours on this Northern Lights snowmobile-pulled slege ride from Inari to the Muotkatunturi Wilderness Reserve.

Immerse yourself in the Arctic landscapes of Finnish Lapland with an expert who will help you find one of the Earth's most spectacular light shows. Book your Northern Lights slege ride from Inari to the Muotkatunturi Wilderness Reserve today!
