Scenic Snowshoeing on the top of Pyhä Fell

The Scenic Snowshoeing Tour is the perfect entry-level adventure for those wanting to experience the magic of Lapland in a relaxed and safe way. Your journey begins with a PyhäExpress chair lift ride to the top of Pyhä Fell (weather permitting), where sweeping views of the Pyhä-Luosto National Park and beyond unfold before your eyes. Under the guidance of an experienced local, you will learn how to use snowshoes with ease while hearing captivating stories about Arctic nature, nearby landmarks, and the traditions and beliefs of the old Lappish people. This gentle yet immersive activity is suitable for beginners and offers both adventure and cultural insight in one memorable outing.

Pyhä Fell is not only a scenic wonderland but also a dream for photographers. As the seasons shift and frosty snow begins to blanket the trees, the fell transforms into a fairytale-like landscape dotted with “snow monsters” – trees encased in whimsical, ever-changing snow formations. Depending on the time of year, you may be treated to breathtaking Polar night skies, radiant sunrise or sunset colors, or dazzling halos around the winter sun. The magical scenery makes bringing a camera a must, as every step of the tour offers a chance to capture the stunning beauty of Lapland’s wilderness.
