Your guide will collect you from your chosen departure. Several departures are possible for this trip: Rovaniemi, Kittilä, Levi or Ylläs. After a short briefing, you will head to Hetta where you will have lunch in a restaurant. It is very important to get a lot of energy as you are about to embark for a challenging snowshoe trip! The trek will start on the frozen Ounasjärvi lake, at the northern limit of Pallastunturi, it will lead you through the white forests of the park where you will very probably spot many footprints of wild animals. As you hike up the first hills, the landscapes will constantly change and be highlighted by the warm lights of the setting sun. It should take around 5-6 hours (16 kms) before you get to your private wilderness hut. You can chill now, while your guide is preparing dinner for you! If you are lucky, the night will even bring some Northern Lights!
