Experience the magical Northern Lights in Finnish Lapland on this private glass-roof sled ride from Inari!
This trip takes place in the wilderness area outside Inari, a picturesque village located in northern Finland. Witnessing the Northern Lights in Inari is very common, due to its low light pollution and proximity to the Arctic Circle.
The Northern Lights sled ride in Inari starts with pick-up from your specified location in the village. This excursion is for private groups of up to 6 participants. After being greeted by your local guide, you'll embark on a 20-minute scenic drive to the activity departure point in the wilderness area outside Inari. Upon arrival, you'll receive a quick safety briefing and get set up in the magical glass-roof sled, equipped with heating, padded seats and safety belts. Then, your evening sled ride in Inari begins!
The sled will be pulled by a powerful snowmobile, driven by the experienced guide. Sit back and relax inside the lit sled, enjoying the mesmerising polar night. The guide will take you to some of the best locations for spotting the Northern Lights, far away from light pollution. In the middle of Finnish nature, you'll be treated to the starry Arctic sky and, if you're lucky, the dancing colours of the Aurora Borealis! You'll have some time to capture memorable photos of the natural wonder.
While admiring the night sky, the guide will prepare a roaring campfire and serve some delicious barbeque snacks. As you warm up, they will also share stories about the myths and legends of the Northern Lights. Afterwards, you'll ride on the sled back to the starting point. Then, the guide will drive you to the original pick-up point in Inari village.
