Finland
Ski Holidays

Welcome to a winter wonderland.

Northern lights, reindeer, huskies and those famous outdoor saunas – there’s much more to Finland than just skiing.

Where skiing perfectly groomed pistes is just one way to enjoy the frozen north.

A Finland ski holiday offers more than just skiing, it's an Arctic experience, complete with Northern Lights and outdoor saunas. It often begins astride a skidoo, jetting across the snowy plains before stopping for a bowl of warming salmon soup in a remote log cabin in the forest. Take an ice driving course with a rally driving legend – Finland is full of them – or learn the art of dog mushing. For little ones, there’s also reindeer safaris and Lapland’s most reclusive resident. Skiing in Finland is perfect for beginners and intermediates, small, cruisy and nothing on the scale – or steepness – of the Alps.
