Winter Holidays

"Excellently planned trip with very patient and flexible guides accommodating participants of all levels and needs. Super food and comfortable accommodation and wonderful authentic local hospitality from the hosts. Highly recommended. Great customer service pre-departure. My friend and I were already perusing your website to see what else was on offer during our trip! We will certainly be recommending you all to others."

Jacqueline, Cross Country Skiing in Hossa and Kalevala, March 2025

"Excellent guide and beautiful trails."

Justine, Cross Country Skiing in Hossa and Kalevala, March 2025

"We are so grateful once more to Nature Travels, my 4th tour ice skating tour across beautiful lakes. Our guides were fantastic and ensured everyone was comfortable on the ice. Their passion and sense of adventure fuelled our appetites - 130km over 4 days of 'kärnis' (black ice)! Nature Travels holidays are quite frankly remarkable. The team's extensive knowledge allows us to try so many unique activities in the heart of Scandinavia, how lucky we are. A fantastic company who caters for the aspiring adventurer. Thank you so much!"

Oliver, Ice Skating on Natural Ice, February 2025

"The best parts were viewing the Northern Lights, the cultural mix in the group and the wonderful snow conditions."

Michael, Cross Country Skiing in Hossa and Kalevala, February 2025

"Thank you! We had a wonderful time and everything went very smoothly."

Eleri, Discover Cross Country Skiing in Rondane, February 2025

"Great trip. Looking at the website for the next adventure! There were lots of highlights - all of the staff in the destination, great food, good range of trails. Helpful information provided before the trip and quick responses."

Maddie, Discover Cross Country Skiing in Rondane, February 2025

"Seamless management from start to finish. The dogs were happy and well cared for. The guides were excellent and made us feel comfortable even though this was our first experience with dogsledding. The landscape was outstanding and the two nights camping were warm and comfortable."

Terry, Experience Dog Sledding and Winter Camping in Finnmark, February 2025

"The quick and specific answers to questions was great and the confirmations of transport/equipment hire was really good. Thanks. After day 3 with the dogs, you have a good idea what the processes are and what your team is like - you can relax and really soak up Lapland behind a team of dogs - great."

Chris, Hut to Hut Aurora Husky Safari in Lapland, February 2025

"Great guide, dogs, service, your great service from the beginning, gorgeous weather...this all added up to a perfect holiday."

Name not supplied, Dog Sledding and Northern Lights in Vindelfjällen, February 2025

"A wonderful experience. From the moment you walk in the door until you leave, this place treats you in very special way. I have learnt so so much and I've never been in a place where I've felt so welcome by the host. It was like being with a family. The farm and the forest are magical and the huskies are gorgeous, incredibly strong and friendly. I had an amazing experience, from looking after the dogs, driving the sled, staying at the camp, a beautiful spot in the wild, eating food on a open fire and sleeping in a tipi with -20!"

Rira, Discover Dog Sledding in Jämtland, February 2025

"Brilliant trip, thank you. Beautiful skiing through snow-bedecked trees, lovely lunches around the fire, great accommodation and guide and hosts, great group of other skiers."

Peter, Cross Country Skiing in Hossa and Kalevala, February 2025

"I cannot recommend this tour company enough. We did the natural ice skating in Sweden and it was phenomenal. Our guide was excellent and made the trip incredible. It was such an amazing experience that is difficult to put into words. You just have to go yourself and you will understand! I will definitely be going back!"

Colin, Ice Skating on Natural Ice, February 2025

"I had the most incredible experience during my 5-day husky tour in Sweden, a once-in-a-lifetime experience all thanks to the team at Nature Travels who made it all possible. All information was very detailed and helped me prepare for the trip. The best part was the experience of looking after the dogs, which is such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and it was incredible, they were so well behaved and trained."

Gemma, Dog Sledding and Northern Lights in Vindelfjällen, February 2025

"I had an amazing trip and would like to thank you for your part in arranging an experience that will become a major highlight of my life. I had a fantastic time with great hosts. I have been recommending your company to anyone who is interested and would definitely book with you again for any future trips. Everything went smoothly, lots of information available and questions answered quickly. The best part was spending time with the huskies and seeing how they and the people live in such extreme conditions."

Matt, Northern Lights Dogsled Adventure in Lapland, February 2025

"A life-affirming experience that I'm recommending to everyone! This was one of the best things I've done in years. The logistics were perfect, the experience was amazing and our guide made it extra special."

Thomas, Ice Skating on Natural Ice, February 2025

"Excellent pre-departure communication, magical snow-covered forests, isolation, walking across frozen lakes, excellent guide."

Neal, Snowshoeing in the Hossa National Park, February 2025

"We just had the best time ever, still absolutely reeling from the experience. It was honestly the best experience of our lives. Our guide was amazing, so knowledgeable but most of all the best fun, who made us all feel really comfortable and safe. Each day was completely different, our guide taking us to cover as many different types of lakes and ice as possible in the 4 days. It was tough, you do have to be fit, but our guide made sure no-one was left behind and we went at a pace we were all comfortable with. Can not stop looking at the videos and pictures and already planning our next trip."

Charlotte, Ice Skating on Natural Ice, February 2025

"It was truly an epic adventure! I know we will treasure the memories for our lifetimes. I'd take another trip with Nature Travels in a heartbeat, and have already recommended you to friends!"

Sarah, Wilderness Lodge and Husky Sledding in Swedish Lapland, January 2025

"We had a great time! Keep up the good work. Your response time is amazing! The highlight was being very involved with the dogs. Beautiful tours out in the wilderness."

Sarah, Northern Lights Dogsled Adventure in Lapland, January 2025

"We had a truly wonderful experience and really appreciate all the effort that went into making the trip so memorable. The breathtaking views and landscapes, the fantastic group, and, of course, the incredible huskies made it unforgettable. A huge shoutout to our guide - she was absolutely fantastic! Her expertise and leadership made the trip run smoothly. The food was also surprisingly good given the circumstances — kudos to our guide for making it all work so well. Thanks again for an unforgettable trip! We're already thinking about our next adventure in the Arctic."

Michele, Hut to Hut Aurora Husky Safari in Lapland, January 2025

"I had the most fantastic time on the trip. The other people on the tour were really lovely and we all got on extremely well. I loved the Wilderness Lodge. The guides were wonderful. It was magical sledding and I enjoyed getting to know everyone. All such lovely interesting people who clearly love what they do. The Northern Lights appeared for three nights so that was awesome! I’ve been privileged to have had such a unique experience!"

Michele, Wilderness Lodge and Husky Sledding in Swedish Lapland, January 2025

"Dogs, food, guides, loved it!"

Mariana, Wilderness Lodge and Husky Sledding in Swedish Lapland, January 2025

"I loved my trip and would do it again :) Thank you so much for organizing it for us! The best parts were working with the dogs, seeing the guides' love for the dogs and seeing the dogs excited about running."

Lucyna, Wilderness Lodge and Husky Sledding in Swedish Lapland, January 2025

"For an Australian, this was an immersion into a very different wilderness. The warmth, care, and experience of the people organising the experience was appreciated. Highlights were the level of care for the dogs and equipment, the clean, warm and comfortable accommodation, the sauna and ice hole experience, the traditional food and level of knowledge and experience that they were willing to share, and the immersion into daily tasks. Together, they made for an incredible experience."

Jane, Polar Lights Husky Sledding in Finnish Lapland, January 2025

"I honestly can say this was one of the best experiences I've ever had. It was all amazing, from seeing the northern lights, to driving our own sleds, even picking up dog poop in the dark at -20 degrees was great as we got to cuddle with the dogs. If I had to pick a best it would be the guides, our group spanned 13-76 years and they were great with us all. [I chose Nature Travels because] right type of trip (length and cost) and good reviews."

Martha, Wilderness Lodge and Husky Sledding in Swedish Lapland, January 2025

"OMG, what an adventure. We loved the experience. Definitely felt the cold but we had such a fabulous time. Our guide was gorgeous and so, so patient. The dogs were amazing. This is one holiday we will be talking about for a long, long time."

Brenda, Dog Sledding and Northern Lights in Vindelfjällen, January 2025

"We had the most amazing holiday. It was just what we wanted and better than we could have hoped for in many ways. Our hosts were so lovely and it was as though we were spending quality time with good friends. We really liked our trip and were expecting everything as it was. However, the personal approach and care made it so much better! It was a unique trip and one that was relaxing and unforgettable. We also experienced the most amazing display of northern lights, which were so lucky to see (sitting in a hot tub by a frozen lake). Pre-departure service was personal and really helpful."

Nicky, Winter Wonderland in Jämtland, New Year 2024/25

"It was a great adventure. Thank you for your excellent assistance and for helping us make this dream come true! Everything was perfectly clear and I got all the assistance I needed. I will recommend Nature Travels to all my friends and colleagues!"

Fabiana and Leone, Backcountry Skiing and Northern Lights in Finnish Lapland, New Year tour 2024/25

"Seeing the Northern lights was completely incredible. Camping out in the tents and staying with the dogs and guides in the snowy landscape is an experience not to be forgotten. Nature Travels offered great options for what I was looking for and provided easily accessible and detailed information of all the options."

Victoria, Experience Dog Sledding and Winter Camping in Finnmark, private tour New Year 2024/25

"We had a great time. The scenery and remoteness were a real draw. The guide was outstanding."

Guy and Emma, Backcountry Skiing and Northern Lights in Finnish Lapland, New Year 2024/25

"We had a fantastic time. The best parts were sledding with no-one around, beautiful scenery and northern lights. Also the guides - nothing was too much trouble for them. Our hosts were amazing. Dogs gorgeous and really enjoyed it. I chose Nature Travels because of the friendly advice and trip which suited our needs."

Christine, Experience Dog Sledding and Winter Camping in Finnmark, private tour Christmas 2024

"The Nature Travels team was extremely helpful and responsive. The best part was the opportunity to experience winter in a different way. Being mesmerised by the northern lights and sliding through snow with a team of huskies is as magical as it can get. I would have stayed longer."

Diego, Northern Lights Dogsled Adventure in Lapland, December 2024

"The trip was lovely. My son and I enjoyed being out with the dogs very much. And we had a very nice guide. The material you sent prior to the trip helped us arrive prepared. We will certainly recommend your team to anyone who is interested in planning a trip to Lapland. And will definitely get in touch again if we decide to plan another adventure!"

Ari, Discover Dog Sledding in Lapland, April 2024

"Where to start. It was incredible and gave us exactly what we were looking for. A fantastic adventure with some real challenges and even hardship from time to time. But most of all it was just a wonderful experience. We didn't really know what to expect when we started the trip, but it turned out to be one of the most wonderful things we've ever done. You were very helpful and easy to deal with and very responsive to our questions."

Chris, Wilderness Dogsled Adventure in Vindelfjällen, April 2024

"Thanks for a great holiday. The guide and equipment were absolutely first rate. I had a great time. The help you provided with advice on how to get there was invaluable and the suggestions on what to see in Helsinki were really useful."

Dave, Backcountry Skiing with Tipi Camping in Eastern Lapland, April 2024

"Totally awesome!"

Christine, Wilderness Dogsled Adventure in Vindelfjällen, April 2024

Jake, Discover Dog Sledding in Lapland, April 2024

"The whole trip was super - we loved it and if anything would have wanted a longer sledding trip. We had a great time and would definitely recommend our trip."

Mary, Dog Sledding and Northern Lights in Vindelfjällen, March 2024

"Thank you for your lovely service! I wholeheartedly recommended you to a lot of friends (who loved all stories and pictures - ah! Scandinavia is so photogenic). I think you run a very nice organisation!"

Sara, who travelled for three Ice Skating, Backcountry Skiing and Dog Sledding experiences, March 2024

"I absolutely loved it! Not only was the nature stunning and the ice absolutely fantastic, the guides were very knowledgeable, kind and took care of a good group atmosphere and gave us all confidence, which contributed to the trip. Next to this they seemed to enjoy themselves, which definitely contributed to the positive vibe! I would definitely go again. This trip really stole my heart! I have recommended it to every cat and dog in the street!"

Sara, Ice Skating on Natural Ice, March 2024

"It made life simple again. Living life in the moment, simple routines, being part of a team, all in a beautiful environment. Then when you are gliding through the snowy mountains, thinking this is fantastic, I can't believe I'm doing this."

Michael, Husky Mountain Expedition in Lapland, March 2024

"I had a wonderful experience. It was all very memorable and met my hopes and wishes, but it makes returning to 'normal' life here quite difficult I've found! Our guide was excellent and led us well, the dogs were wonderful and we had favourable weather conditions. Everything was well organised, nothing was overlooked."

Tom, Dog Sledding and Northern Lights in Vindelfjällen, March 2024

"It was excellent. My favourite part was being in wilderness, no one else about besides our group. In addition, our guide and trail groomer and the overnight hosts were wonderful. Accommodations and food and especially the saunas were great!"

Andrew, Cross Country Skiing in Hossa and Kalevala, March 2024

"Absolutely lovely hosts. They are real naturals and have an incredible eye for detail: from the lovely food to the little gift at the end. They obviously love their dogs (and they all listen very well to them! They made me feel at home."

Sara, Discover Husky Sledding in the Wilderness, March 2024

"It was a great trip. Northern Lights several nights. A highlight was the off-trail section on the fifth day with a very enjoyable descent through powder to a lake, where we had to be careful our pulks did not catch up with us!"

Peter, Backcountry Skiing and Northern Lights in Finnish Lapland, March 2024

"My favourite part was camping in an alpine environment for the first time - with backup hut!"

Stuart, Backcountry Skiing and Northern Lights in Finnish Lapland, March 2024

"Very good pre-departure information and service. The highlight was the silence and vast landscape of endless forest."

Heike, Cross Country Skiing in Hossa and Kalevala, March 2024

"Enjoyed working with the dogs and seeing the beautiful scenery. The staff were very helpful, particularly the cooks, who prepared enjoyable meals."

Frank, Discover Dog Sledding in Lapland, March 2024
