ADVENTURE EXPEDITIONS IN FINLAND

Finland is the ultimate winter off-grid experience. Geographically, Finland makes up part of the northern European countries of Scandinavia, bordering both Sweden to the northeast and Norway to the north, on it's eastern side it also borders Russia. Finland has a densely forested landscape which creates a tranquil, remote environment and is known for it's Taiga forests and frozen lakes of which it has over 160,000.  With it's northern lands lying within the Arctic circle, Finland is one of the world's northernmost countries. Helsinki, the capital, is one of the most northern capitals in the world, second only to Reykjavik in Iceland. This wild and wonderful place is not only great for it's ice fishing and dog sledding. The stunning natural landscapes of Finland are quite simply awe-inspiring, and home to a surprising amount of rare and endangered wildlife such as brown bears, lynx and wolverine. Finland's unique habitats are nurtured and protected by the indigenous Sami culture who have roamed these lands for centuries.

The northern parts of Finland lie within the Arctic Circle line of latitude and therefore this part of the country enjoys the endless summer when the sun doesn’t set and the long winter with no sunrise for months. The Finland Northern Lights, or aurora borealis, are a huge draw for those who visit Finland. Trips to Finland guarantee long stretches of peace and quiet, silent Taiga forests and a wonderfully mindful off-grid experience.
