To enjoy the peaceful beauty of the Midnight Sun, there is no better way than paddling on some of the many lakes and rivers of Lapland. During this activity, your qualified canoe guide will teach you the basic techniques of how to canoe and will provide you with all the safety instructions needed. You will be explained how to use the paddles, move on water and steer your canoe, how to react if capsizing, etc. Your guide will always keep an eye on you and come to your aid if you need help.

While paddling, you will feel the peacefulness of nature surrounding you with the warm rays of the sun shining in the middle of the night. After a long dark winter with snow on the ground for over 6 months, the land, vegetation and animals finally have an opportunity to replenish their energy levels and relax with the abundance of life that the 24-hour sun brings with it. Steering your canoe across the lake, you will have the chance not just to get deeper into this summer harmony but also to feel completely part of it.

Once you are getting back ashore, you will be welcomed by an open fire and some typical Finnish snacks. This is a good moment for your guide to show you how to build and lit a fire (without matches or lighter) using only flint&steel. They will also explain you more about Lapland, life in the Arctic, and the phenomenon of the Midnight Sun. Every moment of this tour is a great opportunity for those of you who are photography enthusiasts, so do not forget to bring your camera along!

The tour lasts 3 hours, including transportation, canoeing and safety instructions, paddling time (from 60 to 90 minutes depending on your level) and the snack around the fire.

In all our activities, our groups are limited to 8 people maximum. It is very important for us to provide you with the best experience possible, and avoid mass tourism. This way, your guide will know you better and will be able to address all your needs and answer your questions.
