Adventure Holidays In Finland

Blessed with generally warm, fine summers and cold winters with heaps of snow, Finland is a country best enjoyed outdoors.

In the summer months, the sun barely sets, leading people to refer to Finland as ‘the land of the midnight sun’. These long days mean there is plenty of time to enjoy northern Finland’s vast wilderness areas where reindeer and elk roam free. The Sami people, many of whom still farm reindeer here, live across an area that covers Norway, Sweden and Finland. Another popular activity is bear watching. Close to the Russian border, the long daylight hours make the perfect conditions for observing the rare European Brown Bear in its natural habitat.

In the winter, the snow comes and covers the tundra with fresh, white powder and the country positively comes alive! From snow-shoeing to cross-country skiing and from dog sledding to snow-mobiling, the snow-covered landscape becomes an adventure playground for people of all ages.

Finland holidays can be enjoyed in both the summer or the winter with Explore.
