3,5 hours electric snowmobile safari in Porovaara Hill (“Reindeer Hill) in Rovaniemi & meeting reindeer

A peaceful electric snowmobile safari at Porovaara Hill (“Reindeer Hill”), a unique private resort located about 20 minutes from the Rovaniemi’s city centre. Get to know the wintertime nature on a silent and C02 emission-free electric snowmobile safari, with plenty of time to explore the wonderful wilderness at your own leisure. The area is a natural wintering area for reindeer, so you’ll probably see reindeer living in the beautiful Lappish forest. This 3,5 h electric snowmobile safari has a clearly longer riding time than the 2,5 hours safari and we go with snowmobiles deeper into the forest. Along the way, stop for a campfire and enjoy the silence and a cup of something warm. After the ride, head to the reindeer fences to feed the majestic animals and learn about herding with your guide. The package also includes enjoying grilled sausages and hot drinks at our Lappish kota building in our resort.
