This is not a standard tourist tour — it’s a private Arctic experience guided by someone who was born and raised in Kiruna. My lifelong connection to the area allows me to take you beyond marked trails and crowded areas, into quiet forests and open landscapes that many visitors never see.
Unlike larger group excursions, this experience is exclusively for your group. That means no strangers, no fixed scripts, and no rushed schedules. The route, pace, and distance are fully adapted to you, the weather, and the snow conditions on that particular day.
The combination of snowshoeing with a traditional wood-fired sauna ritual makes this experience truly unique. After moving through the cold Arctic air, you’ll warm up in a private sauna and take part in a guided Nordic ritual — a cultural tradition that connects nature, body, and mind.
This is a slow, authentic alternative to mass tourism — focused on silence, nature, personal connection, and genuine local knowledge.

From Kiruna: Drive on the E10 and turn at the sign for Kauppinen. Follow the village road until you see a large red house on your right with a reflector in a tree. Turn in and park behind the house. From Jukkasjärvi: The red house will be on your left.
What to expect
The route is adapted to the weather and your group’s fitness level, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable pace. As we move through quiet forests and open snowy landscapes, you’ll experience the deep stillness of nature and, with some luck, search for and spot the Northern Lights above us.
We make your way up to a scenic viewpoint on a small fell, where we take a short break to enjoy the views, breathe the crisp Arctic air, and warm ourselves with hot blueberry juice made from local berries, while taking photos.
After taking in the peaceful surroundings, we continue your walk back down through the snowy forest, following quiet trails illuminated by the soft glow of the Arctic evening.
Back at the homestead, a private wood-fired sauna awaits. The experience includes a guided traditional sauna ritual, followed by time to relax in the cozy lounge with light refreshments.
This exclusive experience is designed for your group only — offering an authentic, peaceful alternative to mass tourism and crowded tours.
