Northern Lights Luxury Short Break at Kakslauttanen Resort

The forests, fells and lakes of Northern Finland are the perfect setting for your winter honeymoon or romantic short break. At 68° North, Finnish Lapland offers a climate that sees seven months of snowfall and over 200 nights of Northern Lights activity. Here reindeer roam across the fells and husky dogs are eager to take you on a trip into the wilderness. You’ll stay in a luxurious Queen Suite log cabin offering privacy and relaxation throughout your stay. The holiday or honeymoon will be customized to your preferred combination of activities and accommodation.

SUGGESTED ITINERARY

WHAT, WHERE & WHEN

DAY 1:

Arrive in Finnish Lapland travelling to Ivalo in the North of the country. Transfer to your luxury accommodation and settle in to your Queen Suite cabin which includes a cosy fireplace, private outdoor hot tub and sauna. Dinner will be served in the restaurant. After dark, wait to see if the Northern Lights appear in the night sky.

Staying at: Kakslauttanen Resort

DAY 2:

Today will be as action-filled or as relaxing as you desire. Join a classic Arctic adventure at the nearby husky farm. Drive your own team of husky dogs through the wilderness and enjoy the moment when silence falls and your dogs focus on the forest track ahead. In the evening, we'd recommend an exciting adventure to hunt the Northern Lights by snow mobile. The lights of the snowmobiles will illuminate the snow as you head into the wilderness. You'll stop for a drink of hot berry juice and if you're lucky, you may view the dance of the Aurora Borealis in the night sky.

DAY 3:

Another day of adventure awaits, or simply relax in your luxurious but cosy log cabin. Kakslauttanen is located in a region populated by Sami people, many of whom herd reindeer. If you'd like to get to know their culture first hand and meet their herd, we'd recommend joining a reindeer sledding adventure today. In the evening, why not continue your search for the Northern Lights by private horse sleigh complete with glass of bubbly in hand. A romantic and unforgettable experience.

DAY 4:

After breakfast you will transfer to Ivalo Airport. Alternatively, why not add extra nights either in the log cabin or extend your stay with the final night in a glass igloo. The glass igloos provide a stunning panoramic view of the night sky. If you’re lucky you’ll watch the dance of the Aurora from your bed or simply enjoy dense star-filled skies.
