Activity description
Ice fishing via a snowmobile safari is a great way to spend a typical Finnish winter day. Join this excursion from Levi, welcoming adventurers of all ages!
Levi is a popular destination located in northern Finland, typically known for its winter and cultural activities. It is situated in the Lapland region, close to the Arctic Circle, creating snowy and frozen conditions during the winter months. This tour combines two authentic Finnish activities - snowmobiling and ice fishing!
This trip will begin by meeting at the starting point in Levi (pick-up is available from specified locations upon booking). Your experienced guide will go through safety instructions and techniques for driving the snowmobile. Each snowmobile will be shared in pairs, with one driver and one passenger and the opportunity to switch during the tour. This tour is beginner and family-friendly, children will travel in a sled pulled by the guide's snowmobile. Once everyone is prepared with their equipment, the adventure begins!
The guide will take you across the snowy fields of the Arctic forest to a frozen lake that is only reached by snowmobile. The Arctic forest trail has breathtaking surroundings where you can take beautiful pictures. Once you arrive at the frozen lake, the guide will show you how to drill a hole in the ice and the best techniques to catch a fish! Ice fishing offers a tranquil nature experience in the fresh air.
While you are waiting for a catch, the guide will make a bonfire to warm up and grill some sausages. Hot drinks will be served during the break. The guides will share great stories about the biggest fish catches and let you know about all the species of fish that can be captured in the area. After enjoying your meal, you will snowmobile back to the starting point in Levi.
For this tour, each snowmobile is shared between two, with one driver and one passenger and the opportunity to switch.
