Join our easy, small-group forest skiing tour in Ylläs, accessible to beginners and families. We pick you up in Äkäslompolo or Ylläsjärvi and drive to the starting point, where your guide introduces the equipment: short skis with integrated skins, which grip on small climbs and glide on the flat, so you feel stable from the start. We begin slowly on flat, open snow, then head into quiet snow-covered forests on gentle terrain, away from prepared tracks and crowds. Your guide shows you the basics of small climbs and descents and adapts the pace and route to the group. In three hours, you get a genuine first taste of skiing through the Lapland woods, surrounded by snowy trees and Arctic silence. The route may be adjusted according to snow conditions, weather and the group’s ability. The focus is on learning the basics and enjoying the forest, not on distance or climbing a fell.
