A private snowshoe tour in Riisitunturi National Park, Finnish Lapland, starting from Ruka-Kuusamo. Just your group, a local Finnish guide and the quiet winter forest.
In winter Riisitunturi is covered with snow-laden spruce trees, known in Finnish as tykky. With snowshoes on, we follow marked trails or make fresh tracks through deep snow, depending on conditions. Higher up, the views open over the national park. Along the way your guide shares stories about the area's nature, wildlife and life in Lapland.

Because the tour is private, we adapt the route, pace and start time to your group: a calm walk, plenty of time for photography or a slightly longer hike. You snowshoe about 4–6 km on moderately easy terrain. No experience is needed; your guide gives a short introduction to the snowshoes. The tour takes 3–4 hours in the park, plus transfers (about 30 minutes each way from Ruka). Total duration is about 5 hours.
We stop at a campfire for light trail snacks and a hot drink.

  • Service animals allowed
  • Travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness
  • We can accommodate dietary needs such as vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, etc. Special diets: please inform us at least 3 days before the tour.
