Join a guided skiing expedition and explore the untamed wilderness like never before


We want to invite you to a remote corner of Northern Finland and show you our favourite way of exploring the arctic tundra with its untouched snowy forests, soft rolling hills and wide frozen lakes. It is a place where you can get away from civilization, where the horizon is filled with endless fells and where the crisp air wakes up all your senses.

TRIP DATES 2026

We will release dates for 2026 during this winter.
Subscribe to Notes from the Wild below and you'll be the first to hear about new dates, trips and other awesome outdoor related content.


Let us show you a form of simplicity, but purely enriching and fulfilling at the same time

What we enjoy so much about these trips is that you instantly feel right here in the moment. Your focus shifts to the now and your surroundings. The lack of phone reception brings us closer together and creates a deeper connection. A connection between nature and the group, pushing through an adventure of one of a kind together.

With a sled and overnight stay in wilderness huts

Our gear is packed in sleds ('ahkio' in Finnish) which we will pull behind us. We haul everything we need, to stay comfortable, warm and well fed. There are no marked trails we follow.

For the skis we use special metal-edge Nordic touring skis made for long distance, off-track skiing. Don’t worry, you don’t necessarily need previous skiing experience. You’ll learn it all and quickly see progress over the week.


Learn new winter skills along the way

Find out about Finnish nature, its people, and the wildlife and with a bit of luck we may be surprised by a stunning show of the Northern Lights at night. Fingers crossed!
