Nous avons appris beaucoup de choses sur la culture Sami, en plus des sensations en motoneige et des paysages féériques! La pause dans la "cabane" était tout aussi appréciable, nous avons pu manger et boire autour d'un feu.

The journey was perfect. and our route crossed forests and a lake. The lake was frozen , so we could drive very fast on the ice. The top speed could reach 70 KM per hour.
