Levi: Cross-Country Skiing Tour for Beginners｜Finland

Discover the magic of Finnish winter traditions on this gentle and scenic cross-country skiing tour, perfect for beginners and curious adventurers alike.

We’ll start by learning the basics of this beloved national sport, once the essential way of moving across snowy landscapes for locals and reindeer herders. With the help of your professional guide, you'll get comfortable with your skis before heading onto the peaceful tracks along Lake Immeljärvi – a site once considered sacred by the Sámi people.

This route offers stunning winter scenery, from frosted forests to open lake views, with the fells of Levi rising nearby. As we glide through this winter wonderland at a relaxed pace, you’ll feel fully immersed in the beauty and silence of Arctic nature.

At the very beginning of the winter season, usually in October and November, the lake ice is not yet safe for skiing. During this period, the tour takes place on Levi’s early-season cross-country ski track, which winds through beautiful forest scenery.

We’ll take a short break during the tour to warm up with a hot berry juice and a light snack, surrounded by snow-covered trees and the tranquility of Lapland.
