Wilderness Hotel Muotka, in the far reaches of northern Lapland, provides the perfect setting for a family winter break, and is a unique destination for those seeking solitude yet still looking for adventure.
Authentic Christmas memories will most certainly be made on this family holiday and not only will you get to meet 'the man himself' but you'll also experience fabulous hospitality, outstanding Finnish food and exhilarating winter activities.
After settling in to you chosen accommodation, let the fun commence!
Where there is Santa, of course there are reindeer, and during your stay you will visit some of these curious creatures at a local reindeer farm. Learn how to throw the Lappish lasso and let them nuzzle your hand as the nibble on lichen before taking a sleigh ride around the forest enclosure. Moving on to something a little faster, explore the stunning snow-laden landscapes during a thrilling snowmobile journey through the taiga forest and swap back to a more natural mode of transport on an unforgettable husky safari. An evening trip by snowmobile drawn sledge transports you to an Aurora Camp where you can gaze to the dark Arctic skies for signs of the northern lights while sipping on warm berry juice and munching on pancakes.
Soon, the time will come to meet Santa and a snowmobile sleigh ride through the snowy forest will take you to his secret forest hideaway. A private meeting with the man himself will bring joy all round and offers time to chat and a gift for everyone.
This will be a Christmas to remember!
