Activity description

Experience the breathtaking Northern Lights on an unforgettable snowmobile ride in Kiruna, followed by a delicious dinner in the Torne River Valley. Welcoming adventurers from ages 3 and up on this family-friendly excursion!

Kiruna is the most northern town in Sweden, located close to the borders of Norway and Finland. Situated within the Arctic Circle, the region features typical Arctic conditions in the winter, with pristine nature, snowy forests and dark evenings. It is also a great place for witnessing the magical Northern Lights!

Once you've arrived at the starting point in Kiruna, your experienced guide will welcome you and you'll get geared up before embarking upon your snowmobile adventure. All experience levels are welcome, the guide will go through a safety briefing and driving lesson. Children will sit in a sled pulled by the guide's snowmobile. Each snowmobile is shared between two, with one driver and one passenger and the opportunity to switch midway.

Following your guide, you will set off into the forests across the snowy terrain. The light from the stars and moon will create a peaceful atmosphere on the dark night. The headlights from the snowmobiles will light up the trails and the trees will cast long shadows out into the darkness. Further along the path, you'll stop and turn off the snowmobiles. There, in total silence, you will hopefully witness the sky burst out in different colours as the Northern Lights appear. Also, your guides will share entertaining stories, myths, and legends about this amazing naturally occurring phenomenon. You'll finish off this unique experience by stopping in a quaint cabin to try some of Lapland's delicacies. 

Don't miss this unforgettable snowmobile adventure beneath the awe-inspiring Aurora Borealis in the remote Swedish wilderness of Kiruna!

We totally recommend this activity. Even if we didn't see the Northern light because of the clouds, we had an amazing time. Driving a snowmobile is super cool and the typical Sami/Swedish dinner was so delicious and cosy in a cabin in the middle of the forest.

Conducir una moto de nieve por la Laponia sueca es espectacular. Pero si además se hace de noche tiene algo especial y mágico que convierte la actividad en algo extraordinario. Sin duda lo reomiendo al 100%.

Incroyable expérience, entre la motoneige, le repas excellent en pleine forêt avec feu de bois. Nous avons malheureusement pas pu malgré tous les efforts pour nous faire voir les aurores boréales nous n’avons pu les voir à cause des conditions météorologiques. Nous gardons un souvenir inoubliable de cette excursion.

Organisation au top ! Guide (Aurelie ) très accueillante Super soirée en motoneige et moment de partage autour d un feu pour le dîner . Même si nous n avons pas vu les aurores ce soir là , la soirée valait vraiment le coup

  • 5 / 5

Nous avons eu la chance de voir des aurores boréales avant même de commencer la moto neige. L'activité est complète en alliant les aurores, à la moto neige et le repas typique suédois autour d'un feu.

  • 5 / 5

Seeing the northern lights is pure luck. But if you want an activity that is still memorable even if you don’t, this is perfect!

L'activité était conforme à nos attentes même mieux. La partie moto neige est magnifique. Nous avons eu la chance de voir 3 Aurores boréales dans la soirée. Super moment pour le dîner autour d'un feu , avec plusieurs spécialités de l'as bas, dont du renne.. Mention spéciale pour notre superbe guide Matthew, qui est resté à notre écoute pour la conduite, et qui nous a aider à prendre de magnifiques photos des aurores. Je recommande.
