Drive your silent electric snowmobile towards the sunrise on this environmentally friendly snowmobile safari just outside Rovaniemi in Finnish Lapland.
You set off to the forest in the morning to enjoy the few hours of daylight the Arctic winter has to offer. Driving on the frozen lake and through the snow-clad forest, you get to see the rising sun turn the wilderness into a vista of glistening white. The silent eSleds offer an environmentally sustainable way to enjoy the clean and fresh Arctic nature. The eSled is very easy to drive for beginners due to its special electric drive. Before heading back, you will stop at a hunting cabin on the top of a hill to warm yourself by the fire and enjoy hot juice, sausages, and cookies.
A driving license is not required since you will travel on private routes and properties, but there must be at least one person over 18 years old on the shared eSled. The total distance is approx. 15-30 km.
Two persons will share a sled. It is possible to drive your own sled for an additional cost. Please let us know during the booking process of you are interested in driving your own sled.
