Things to do in Akaslompolo

Join us for a snowshoeing adventure in Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park in Lapland! You’ll get to explore the stunning winter landscape, walking on deep snow without sinking thanks to snowshoes. No special skills needed—if you can walk confidently and have good balance, you can snowshoe! Pallas is known for its breathtaking fells (small mountains) and the cleanest air in Europe, so you’ll be breathing in some of the freshest air around. After a few hours of snowshoeing, we’ll relax in a cozy hut where you’ll enjoy a lunch of grilled sausages, snacks, and beverages around a warm campfire. You’ll even have a cup of freshly brewed coffee made from pure spring water right next to the hut. The entire experience lasts about 5,5 hours, including two to two and a half hours of snowshoeing, a one-hour lunch break, and a scenic 45-minute drive from Levi to the park. If you need winter clothing, we can provide it for €22 per person. The group size is up to 14 people.
