Before going on an adventure in wonderful snowy landscapes of Lapland, you will have to wait till winter sets in.

In other words, the layer of snow has to be sufficient to drive snowmobiles around.

  • Start of the season: Around November 20th
  • End of the season: Around end of March/mid April

  • First of all, you must be over 18 years old to drive a snowmobile,

For example, if you decide to leave for a formula type “Snowmobile excursion of 2h”, you will have to deduct both transport time but also the time to dress with warm clothes and receive driving instructions.

Driving time = Safari duration- transportation from hotel to departure point – dressing and driving instruction time
