Kicksledding

A kicksledding trip lets you experience speed and lifts your spirits. It’s a truly Finnish way of moving around on the snow-covered paths. Have great fun gliding down the hills on your kicksled, then make your way back up by kicking with one leg while standing and letting the other one rest on the glider. Kicksledding requires a bit of strength and oomph, but it’s a very entertaining way to enjoy the snow and the great outdoors on the top of Iso-Syöte.

  • Duration: 2 hours 
  • Included: kicksled, safari outfit, hot drink
  • Please note: does not require any previous experience
  • Price: 50 € / person (1 person per kicksled)
  • Available in the winter weekly program on Tuesdays

Ice Fishing

An ice fishing trip starts with a drive to a beautiful wilderness pond. The guide teaches participants the technique of ice fishing and gives advice on good spots for fishing. However, everyone is free to decide where they want to fish and to try their luck at fishing. You can be quite sure to catch one or two here! A coffee break is, of course, part of any ice fishing trip.

  • Duration: 2-3 hours 
  • Included: ice fishing, transfer, coffee and snack, safari outfits
  • Please note: does not require any previous experience
  • Price: 80 € / person
  • Available in the winter weekly program on Fridays and Saturdays
