Summary

During this activity, your qualified canoe guide will teach you the basic techniques on how to canoe and will provide you with all the safety instructions needed. You will be explained how to use the paddles, how to move on water and steer your canoe, how to react if capsizing, etc. Your guide will always keep an eye on you, and will come to your aid if you are in need of help. While paddling, you will feel the peacefulness of the nature surrounding you with the warm rays of the sun shining in the middle of the night. Steering your canoe across the lake/river, you will not just enjoy to get deeper into this summer harmony but also feel completely part of it. Once you are getting back ashore, you will be welcomed by an open fire and some typical Finnish snack. This is a good moment for your guide to show you how to build and lit a fire (without matches or lighter!) using a flint & steel. They will also explain you more about Lapland, life in the Arctic, and the phenomenon of the Midnight Sun. Every moment of this tour is a great opportunity for those of you who are photography enthusiasts, so do not forget to bring your camera along !
