Snowtrain to Northern Lights Camp
About
About
All aboard the Snowtrain! Embark on a cozy journey through mysterious forests and fields to a secret spot where a Lappish 'Kota' hut awaits. As you gather around a crackling campfire to savor light snacks and a hot drink, you’ll find yourself transported to a world far removed from the ordinary. The magic of the Arctic nighttime is not just one thing; it encompasses the sounds, the pale moonlight, the stars above, and more. Take a pair of snowshoes and stroll about, immersing yourself in the serenity all around. With a bit of luck, even the Auroras might make an appearance!
