Arctic Midnight Sun Picnic
It's past midnight, the sun is on the horizon, and you are eating a delicious dinner by an open fire. Sounds like a dream? The midnight sun in the northernmost part of Finland is the most popular natural yearly occurrence. This is the time to celebrate daylight and summer.
What to expect?
-
We will start our tour with a hotel pick up. Even though you can enjoy the beautiful sunny nights anywhere in Lapland, we like our midnight sun experience to be as special as it can. So, we're taking you to the top of the Santavaara Hill, just a 25-minute drive from Rovaniemi. We will take a hike through a small forest, and set up a campfire to keep warm, but also to cook a delicious dinner.
-
Summer is our favorite time of the year, for it is the time when we are the most active. As you experience the midnight sun, you will start to feel energized, awake and fully in sync with yourself and your surroundings. Did you know that some believe the midnight sun is a perfect time for shamanic healing? On this relaxing tour, we will enjoy a traditional bit of fun by the open fire, and help ourselves to sparkle wine. Since the midnight sun occurs during berry season, we will go berry picking, and taste delicious wild berries, straight from the Finnish forest. We might see wild, but friendly Arctic animals, such as moose, reindeer, and many wild birds.
-
Your guide will prepare tasty snacks by an open fire, we will pick berries together, and salute the daylight after midnight. This is one of the rarest natural phenomena, and a total bucket list experience, so whatever you do, don't miss out on this rare occurrence.
