Snowshoeing is a fun, safe and easy way to get around in snow. Our local guide will take you to experience the beautiful and peaceful forests and fells of Utsjoki region. There is no need to be an athlete, as we can modify the route to different fitness levels! The technique of walking with snowshoes is basically like normal walking, but you have a larger footprint and "claws" that enable you to walk on snow easily, even uphill and downhill.
Snowmobiling
Nuorgamin Lomakeskus
Wintertime makes Nuorgam a superior place for snowmobile riding due to its outstanding location and many different routes. You can choose snowmobile day trips from a short ice fishing trip to an Arctic Ocean safari covering hundreds of kilometres. The snowmobile routes traverse varying terrain: open fell highland, coniferous forest zone, frozen swamps between the rugged fells and the great ice of the frozen Tenojoki River. A theme for each snowmobiling day can be chosen according to the terrain. If you want, we can organise local guides to order to accompany you on your day trip or take you in a sled pulled by a snowmobile for a trip into the fell highlands. The village of Nuorgam has fuel sales and a service station, and a snowmobile repair shop that also sells spare parts. You can purchase permits for the Finnish side of the border online at Eraluvat.fi. No special permits are needed for riding a snowmobile on the Norwegian side of the border

Ice-fishing on the fells of Utsjoki
Travel Utsjoki
Ice fishing is a traditional way of catching fish in winter, when lakes are frozen. Join a local guide for a half-day tour on the fells and learn to catch your own fish! We will take you to the fells on a snowmobile and sleigh ride. We stop at a fell lake and try to catch arctic char and brown trout with an ice fishing rod. The guide will teach you how to fish and help you with using the rod. If you are lucky and get a catch, we can cook the fish for you on open fire. We enjoy hot drinks and snacks and sit comfortably on reindeer hides, admiring the silence and beauty of the wilderness around us. On our ice fishing trips, we only fish from waters that are too high in fish stock. This way we avoid exploiting the nature but restore balance of the lake, while having a nice time in the wilderness and learning new skills.
