Pyhätunturi: Try Wilderness Skiing in Finnish Lapland｜Finland

To ski peacefully across the unbroken snow in Pyhä-Luosto National Park is arguably the most authentic activity in the whole of Lapland. This is how the locals, including the indigenous Forest Sámi people, have done for the last 7000 years!

It is neither a snowshoe nor a traditional long backcountry ski, but a crossbreed with the best of both worlds. A wide, short, agile ski makes it easy to travel across thick snowfields. No previous skiing experience is required to enjoy gliding across the puffy snowfields. A guide will be happy to instruct you in the correct, fun and safe skiing technique using the ski poles, too. Exploring Arctic forest was never so easy and effortless!

Pyhä-Luosto National Park makes a lovely environment for enjoying wilderness skiing. Follow your guide deeper into the Arctic Taiga forest, feel the soft snow under your wide yet light skis. Enjoy some captivating stories about the Arctic nature shared by your guide.
