OVERNIGHT SNOWMOBILE SAFARI
Duration: Approx One and a half days
This modern form of transport will propel you through the unspoiled wilderness at speed. You will cross frozen lakes, rivers and fells to arrive at the wilderness cabin which is to be your base for the night. After breakfast, you will venture out into the arctic tundra for the return leg of your journey heading for the warmth of the Davvi Arctic Lodge.
Please note: Wilderness cabins are basic (without electricity or running water) and with outside WC but very atmospheric, especially in candlelight with dinner cooking over a wood stove. Some have a wood-heated sauna. With little light pollution, the cabins offer a great chance to glimpse the Northern Lights. You may have to share the wilderness cabin with other clients who have booked the same excursion; please remember the cabins do not have private accommodation. What's more, everyone is expected to join the evening's activities, such as feeding the huskies or preparing dinner. It is all part of the wilderness experience. The minimum on an overight safari is two persons.
