With mile upon mile of snow-laden taiga forest and glistening frozen lakes, Finland is the perfect playground for a huge variety of winter activities including cross-country skiing, dogsledding, snowshoeing and snowmobiling.
Miles from civilisation, the wilderness lodges we take you to on our Finland winter holidays offer immediate access to some of the country’s most remote regions, including Oulanka National Park in the north-east and the Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park high above the Arctic Circle.
