An original experience awaits you from Rovaniemi, combining encounters with Lapland's most emblematic animals and an open-air ride in the saddle of an unusual machine. The Snowtrail Safaris team invites you to discover what they call the Electric Reindeer, a sort of combination between a scooter and a snowmobile that allows you to travel alone on the snow, while respecting the environment thanks to an electric motor. Equipped with a snow tyre at the front and a track at the rear, this machine has a seat and is very easy to handle. You don't need a driving licence to take the controls, just to be at least 15 years old! The little ones can take part in the adventure in complete safety, in a sleigh pulled by the guide's snowmobile.
This reindeer farm tour and snow scooter ride from Rovaniemi will take you for 2 hours (40 to 60 minutes of actual driving) deep into the Lapland forest, where you will meet not only the reindeer on the farm but also, if you are lucky, other local wildlife (foxes, elk, etc.). Halfway along the route, you will reach a typical log cabin where you can warm up and enjoy a snack with a glass of glögi, a local drink. All safety equipment will be provided, as will thermal clothing to protect you from the cold throughout the adventure. Finally, your guide will be on hand to share a wealth of information about Lapland's flora and fauna, as well as the region's culture and traditions. It is sure to be an enriching experience!
With a small group of no more than 8 participants, this guided tour of a reindeer farm and snow scooter from Rovaniemi will take you off the beaten track and into a quiet forest away from the city. The transfer from Rovaniemi is included, so don't miss out, especially if you don't have a car!
