LUXURY TRAVEL LAPLAND

the destination

Lapland is a vast region that stretches over the northern parts of Finland (about one third of its total surface area), Norway, Sweden and the Kola Peninsula in Russia. It is as big as Belgium, Switzerland and The Netherlands all put together and is inhabited by the Sámi people.

As most of this region lies above the Arctic Circle, the differences in daylight hours between Summer and Winter are extreme. Depending on the season, you can experience either the Midnight Sun or the Northern Lights. Indeed, during Summer (mid-May to July), the sun doesn’t set. In contrast, during Winter, daylight is limited to about four hours, which creates perfect conditions to view the Aurora Borealis, especially between November and March.

The Northern Lights, this region’s most famous attraction, are a truly unique phenomenon that have captivated mankind for millennia. Scientifically speaking, this event takes place when electrically charged particles from the sun collide in the Earth’s atmosphere: the colour of the lights depends on kind of gas particles involved. Mystically speaking, the Sámi people believed these lights were the souls of the dead and you weren’t supposed to dance or sing for fear they would feel disrespected and would carry you off to the afterlife. The Vikings, for their part, believed the lights were the Valkyries taking fallen soldiers to meet Odin, their Chief God.

This fascinating snow-covered playground is filled with arctic adventures and magical winter landscapes waiting to be discovered.

Norwegian Lapland is a rugged wilderness region that offers amazing activities on land as well as on the fjords around such as Northern Lights watching, dog sledding and Whale Watching. Swedish Lapland, home of the indigenous Sámi people, is so sparsely populated that it gives visitors a chance to experience raw nature at its finest and ancient boreal forests; it is a region where reindeer roam free and where you will find some of Scandinavia’s most unique attractions such as the famous Icehotel. Finnish Lapland, the official home of Santa, is as close as it gets to a winter wonderland: there are as many reindeer as there are of people in the province and if you look at the streets of Rovaniemi from the sky, they appear to be shaped like reindeer antlers. The landscapes are simply majestic and offer unparalleled opportunities for trekking; experience the Northern Lights, go snowmobiling or reindeer sledding and experience a Sámi cultural activity.
