THE EXPERIENCE TO LIVE: The true Finnish way of life is a good sweating hike to the top of one of the highest fells in the area followed by a long relaxing time in a luxury sauna by the lake. We have created that exciting combo of two great moments of adventure as the sites of these two are separated by only one kilometer!  Save your whole afternoon and evening for this program as we will try to rediscover the virtues of uniting ourselves with the natural elements and slowing down the pace of our lives. Indeed that hike cannot be a round trip rush to the summit forgetting to enjoy the wide angle views on the lakes on both side of the mountain, the immense taiga that stretches to the Swedish border, and the long range of Pallas fells. Likewise a sauna experience cannot be a schedule to obey. We will take time to discover the different Lappish atmospheres filling the several sauna rooms, and of course to take as many dips as we wish in the refreshing waters of the lake.
