Midwinter Trek in Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park

Midwinter Trek in Pallas-Yllästunturi National ParkMidwinter Trek in Pallas-Yllästunturi National ParkMidwinter Trek in Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park

This four day hike on Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park takes you to the serene snow wilderness of Finnish West Lapland. A professional guide leads us in silent woods and on majestic treeless hills – Tunturi in Finnish. In the middle of our day we have a lunch break in small huts or tepees where campfire gives light and warmth to our rest.

After a brisk trekking day we relax in a bath in a sauna and have a delicious dinner. We stay the night in simple but cosy huts where the only comforts are a wood-heated sauna, a tasty meal, good company and warm sleeping bag.

Polar night, in Finnish Kaamos, starts here at this latitude on the 4th of December and continues till 10th of January. During this time the sun is not to be seen above the horizon. However, it is not as dire as it may sound - during the Polar Nights the landscape is covered in snow, beautifully reflecting the light of the stars above. Twilight around noon - and headlamps - gives enough light to our trek. The time of the Polar Nights is the perfect time to watch the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis)

To this program you can participate either with skis or snowshoes (rent included in the package). Food and equipment needed during the trek is carried in a personal pull sled (rent included in the package).

We start our tour from Rauhala Village in Kittilä. Rauhala is located ca. 30 km from Levi Ski Resort and ca. 40 km from Ylläs Ski Resort (Äkäslompolo Village).
