Salla Wilderness Park
Would you like to feel the silence of the polar night and travel in the dark forest with the reindeer? Would you like to have a chance to hunt for the the Northern Lights in the middle of nowhere? Our Northern Light hunting trip starts from the Reindeer Park after the darkness falls. In night time our reindeer are connected to each other so you don’t have to worry about anything else but enjoy the ride. Our route, about 6 kilometers, passes through a snowy forest and open swamp areas. During the ride we will stop at a corral, where we feed our female and calf reindeer. Half way we will have a bit longer break and make a big fire next to a swamp. Red flames and open fire will make you feel warm and create cozy atmosphere. Around the fire you can enjoy hot berry juice or hot chocolate. One can go a bit further from the fire place, in complete darkness, and try to hunt the Northern Lights. Swamp opens to the north and there’s no light pollution so if you are lucky, that is very good place to see the auroras.

Canoe trip starts from the Reindeer Park’s main building, where our guide will equip you with suitable gear. You will get life jackets, water proof bags and rain coats if necessary. From the Reindeer Park we continue to Hangasjärvi which is about 5 kilometers away. You will drive with your own car after our guide.

Hangasjärvi -lake is nice and easy place to paddle and you will have plenty of time to enjoy the nature and silence in the middle of nowhere. One thing important being in the nature here in Lapland is of course fixing a fire, preparing black pot coffee, grill a sausage and listen to stories about Lapland wonders. This we will also do during this canoe trip.
