Get ready for the biggest adventure of your holiday! This wilderness adventure takes
you to our absolute best photography location in Lapland.
Riisitunturi National Park is home to some of the most dramatic and awe-inspiring landscapes in Lapland. These are scenes you cannot find even in the finest postcards! We will travel as a team and the whole adventure is done in small groups only!
The Riisitunturi adventure is especially recommended for photographers and those with the heart of an explorer. We will climb high up the fells, to reach unforgettable views above the horizon. On the way you will experience frozen forests full of snow crowded trees and amazing views opening around us when we climb higher on our journey. On the way we will have multiple photography stops to capture the amazing Arctic nature around us.
During the day, we will serve you a light lunch which includes Lappish specialty sandwiches together with sausages grilled on the campfire. We will prepare our food in the middle of nature while enjoying a relaxing break among beautiful sceneries and breathing our lungs full of the cleanest and purest Arctic air.
