Kakslauttanen resides in the northern reaches of Finnish Lapland boasting a beautiful setting, and the surrounding landscapes can be enjoyed in both autumn and winter in a multitude of ways. In autumn, before the snows arrive, explore by quad bike, hike with huskies or horse ride in the national park. When the temperatures drop and snow blankets the ground in winter, swap your mode of transport to snowmobiles, husky drawn sleds and snowshoes to name but a few.
Whenever you choose to travel the northern lights are no doubt high on your list of things "to do" and both autumn and winter can provide ample opportunities. The first auroras can appear in late August and this amazing phenomenon can be witnessed throughout both seasons until early April.
On this relaxing short break we have left your days free to choose your own activities and after each day, and a delicious evening dinner, you will return to comfort of your kelo log cabin to spend lazy nights by the log fire or relaxing in your own sauna. Your first or final night will be spent in one of the famous glass igloo's where you can pop the champagne on ice and cosy on up for an unforgettable evening under the stars.
Kakslauttanen may be famous for its Glass Igloo Village but why not go one step better and choose accommodation that truly surpasses expectations… the Kelo-Glass Igloo. Sleeping 2 to 6 people the Kelo-Glass Igloos combine the warmth and comfort of a traditional log cabin with the unique luxury of a glass igloo bedroom allowing you to sleep under the star every night of your stay.
