Whether you’re planning a day trip or an extended vacation in Lapland, Apukka Resort offers a wide range of bucket-list-worthy activities during the autumn and winter seasons. You’re sure to find something that suits your schedule, and all activities include transfers to and from Santa Claus Village and Rovaniemi city center. The Arctic wilderness surrounding us is our magnificent playground. Our private land and carefully created routes provide a safe and serene environment for all nature activities. Our guides immerse you in the Finnish way of life and share their deep connection with nature.
We offer activities in three different seasons:
– Autumn : 1.9.-12.11
– Early Winter : 13.11.-30.11.
– Winter : 1.12.-7.4.
Autumn marks the start of the Aurora Borealis season and a time when Lapland’s nature dons vibrant shades of yellow, orange, and red – the season of fall foliage. During this period, you can embark on a Northern Lights tour, encounter Arctic animals in our safaris, hike through the wilderness, or explore the landscape from the saddle of an eFatbike.
Winter arrives early in Apukka Resort, as we kick off our snow-based activities from November 13th onwards. If nature doesn’t provide us with sufficient snow, we’ll create it using stored snow and snow cannons. Join us for fun-filled experiences like husky tours, reindeer sleigh rides, snowmobile safaris, and much more. These tours offer a special chance to enjoy snowy activities ahead of the usual season.
When the winter season is in full swing, you’ll find our selection of winter activities expanding. Enjoy longer husky rides, a greater variety of Northern Lights tours , snowshoeing … There are simply too many things to do to list here!
For those interested in experiencing Finnish saunas, our variety of saunas are available for booking. You can try the traditional lakeside sauna with ice swimming or sauna with an outdoor jacuzzi. Please note that sauna reservations do not include transfers, but you can utilize our Apukka Shuttle Bus for transportation.
