This video shows the best bits of our trip to Lapland in Finland. With temperatures as low as MINUS 27 CELSIUS this was an experience we will never forget. We have a great time travelling to Lapland Finland and we took part in Reindeer Rides, Husky Rides, Frozen Lake Finishing, Snowmobile Rides and the list goes on.
Back in Saariselka, Finland we went winter walking, hiking and tobogganing. This town within the Artic Circle, Finland Lapland is stunning with it's wooden buildings and snow covered trees throughout.
The food is really good and similar to what we have back home with a few exceptions. The people were very friendly and spoke really good English which is a blessing for my poor use of foreign languages.
The sun rose after 10:30am and the sunset before 2:00pm. The afternoon felt really weird because it was only mid afternoon yet felt much later. Now I know why the locals take vitamin D supplements!
We had the Santa's Lapland experience which included a visit to see Father Christmas, or Santa Claus as he is locally known, at the Santa Claus Village. Personally I think you have to visit Finnish Lapland to do it properly.
I would highly recommend a visit to Finland. We didn't have time to get out of time and do the Northern Lights / Aurora Borealis properly, but we definitely saw some interesting lights in the sky.
There is still time to go to Finland 2021 so treat yourself and get yourself over there for the most magical experience discovering Finland.
If you want to know what winter walking gear to take check out my other videos. This includes skiing gear and winter mountaineering gear too.
Thanks, Andy.
