Sleigh ride on a Finnhorse

Get under the sleigh’s warm blankets and relax on a winter sleigh ride. This hour-long traditional ride on a Finnhorse takes you in the footsteps of our ancestors, when the horse was the only means of transport.

Listening to the sound of the Setolkka bell and the clatter of hooves, you can get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and stop to enjoy the moment.

The trip is also carried out in the summer, when for a small group (max. 4 people) we take an elegant carriage that was used by the Swedish Royal Taxi, which is known to be the only one of its kind here in Finland.

For larger groups (max. 8 people), we take carriages, where you can enjoy the atmosphere even with a larger group.

Northern lights trip with a Finnhorse

This atmospheric two-hour evening ride is suitable for all ages. Get on the sled, sit comfortably and relax to the sound of the Setolkka bell as the journey takes you into snowy nature. During the trip, we stop to enjoy the peace of nature by a blazing campfire.

If the odds are in our favour, we will get to admire the wonderful northern lights and the beautiful starry sky.

Depending on the snow situation, either a carriage or a sledge is used, minimum number of participants is 2.

In winter, the temperature can drop rapidly, which is why, the weather limit for the activity is -28 degrees.
