Description

The Scandinavian fells, also known as the Scandinavian Mountains, run through the northern end of Scandinavia and make for some of Europe’s best backcountry skiing.

Join us and over the course of 8 days, we will head out on an unforgettable hut-to-hut skiing adventure through the Kasivarsi Wilderness Area.

We will spend most of our trip above the tree line, enjoying incredible views as well as exploring the various mountains in the range, some of which are 1.000 meters high. We will even summit Finland’s tallest mountain (1.324 meters) as we go!

Each night will be spent in a different mountain hut, but if everyone is willing, we will also have the option to try out some Arctic camping.

Among the various highlights you can expect to enjoy on the trip are seeing frozen waterfalls, which are always an impressive sight, as well as enjoying the solitude of the empty Finnish backcountry.

At dark, we will also be privy to the Northern Lights. With no other competing source of light in the backcountry, we should get some unparalleled great views of this spectacular phenomenon.

So what are you waiting for? Book now for an unforgettable 8-day backcountry skiing adventure through the remote Scandinavian fells in Finland’s Kasivarsi Wilderness Area!

If you like the look of this trip then we think you will also enjoy our 8-day backcountry ski tour of Lemmejoki National Park, also in northern Finland!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.

Hello! I have been thoroughly impressed by the service and assistance that explore-share have provided the past couple years in helping to plan my trip to the High Tatras in Poland. I really appreciated the flexibility that they provided in allowing me to rearrange my trip twice owing to covid. They were responsive and communicative throughout. This trip was part of my Stag weekend celebrations and explore-share connected me with an outstanding guide in the form of Marcel - he was an excellent recommendation and we really enjoyed our guided hike in the High Tatras with him. Marcel was an outstanding professional, placed a high focus on preparing well and staying safe, and was also a great guy! Highly recommend. Many thanks and best wishes - Richard
