Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Will it be cold?

Yes. While pretty much every building in Lapland is fitted with central heating to help keep out the cold, a number of activities will take place outdoors where temperatures can drop to -5 or even -30°C! Thermal suits are lent out for the duration of your stay, and are covered by your booking fee.

Q. What should I pack/ What should I wear?

Layers! The thermal suits provided to you on arrival are wonderful for traversing the outdoors, however layers you can easily shed are preferable once you’re back inside. So think leggings, hats, scarves, and plenty of spare socks!
