Electric Snowmobile Northern Lights Safari

Hunt for the Northern Lights silently speeding through the arctic forests just outside Rovaniemi in Finnish Lapland on your electric snowmobile.

The silent electric snowmobiles, eSleds, offer an environmentally sustainable way to enjoy the clean and fresh Arctic nature on an exciting safari. The eSled is very easy to drive for beginners due to its special electric drive.

You ride your eSled to the top of a hill, far from the city lights – an ideal place for watching the Northern Lights. You stop to observe and admire the night sky and stars, and, if you are lucky, watch the dancing Northern Lights in the sky. The guide is happy to help you with camera settings if you wish to take pictures. During the stop you will warm up by the fire in a private hunting cabin and enjoy a Finnish supper.

A driving license is not required since you will travel on private routes and properties, but there must be at least one person over 18 years old on the shared eSled. The total driving time is approx. 1.5-2 hours.

Two persons will share a sled. It is possible to drive your own sled for an additional cost. Please let us know during the booking process of you are interested in driving your own sled.
