Canoeing is a wonderful and peaceful way to explore Lapland in the summer while also respecting its natural beauty!
Finland, popularly known as the Land of a Thousand Lakes, is really a land of lakes, with over 188 000. A large number of them can be found in Lapland and provide lovely, harmonious panoramas. Many birds and small animals, such as geese, swans, longspurs, cranes, and otters live in the lakes and rivers. If you're lucky, you might be able to see a number of them!
Your qualified canoe guide will teach you the fundamentals of canoeing and provide you with all necessary safety instructions during this activity.You'll learn how to use the paddles, how to travel on water and guide your canoe, and how to react if your canoe capsizes, among other things. Your guide will keep an eye on you at all times and will assist you if you require assistance.
While paddling, you will be surrounded by the tranquility of nature and be able to see Lapland from a completely different perspective!
When you return ashore, you'll be greeted by an open fire and a traditional Finnish snack. This is an excellent time for your guide to demonstrate how to make and light a fire with a flint and steel (without the use of matches or lighters!). They will also provide you with further information on Lapland, life in the Arctic, and wildlife. For those of you who are photographers, every minute of this tour is a terrific chance, so don't forget to bring your camera (but be careful around water!).
Transportation, canoeing and safety lessons, paddling time (1-1h30 depending on your aptitude), and a snack around the fire are all included in the 3-hour excursion. Our groups are limited to a maximum of 8 people on all of our excursions. It is critical for us to give you with the greatest possible experience while avoiding mass tourism. Your guide will get to know you better this way, and will be able to meet all of your needs and answer all of your questions. As we often say, the smaller the group, the greater the adventure!
