The backcountry tours take between 3 and 7 hours depending on the conditions. Your guides will recommend the best safe route down to ensure you score the best run possible. On average, you can expect to ski and snowboard a mix of dry powder in the trees and soft snow in the gullies at the top of the fells.
Our home base for the tour is Lucky Ranch, a family-owned business close to Pyhä in Finnish Lapland. Staying at Lucky Ranch means you can experience a true Finnish sauna and many other experiences, such as sleeping in a snow igloo.
We will also set up film screenings and special evenings where you get to sample real local foods and drinks.
