Experience the changing Arctic seasons on a guided hike with the energetic Siberian huskies. Whether walking through vibrant autumn foliage or the first winter snow, you will enjoy the crisp wilderness air of Mellavaara hill, located right next to Halo Igloos resort.
The tour includes a scenic snack break in the company of your joyful companions, giving you time to take photos and learn more about the daily life of huskies.
Regardless of its name, this trek is neither long nor demanding, though the uneven terrain, minor inclines, and occasionally strong pull of the dogs might make you break a light sweat. After all, nothing beats spending time outdoors in the fresh air, right?

The Aurora Borealis is an astonishing spectacle across the polar night sky, and there is no better place to admire it than our private basecamp on Mellavaara hill, offering unobstructed views to the north.
We begin the journey with a relaxed 20-25 minutes hike up to the hilltop. Then, we’ll gather inside a cozy, kota hut to light a campfire, while observing the night sky. In the meanwhile. your guide prepares traditional Finnish crêpes (muurinpohjalettu) over the open flame.
Once the Northern Lights appear, you will be amazed by their vibrant colors and movement across the sky. Otherwise, the pristine, star-filled arctic sky is an experience in itself. Should the Northern Lights fail to appear, you are welcome to rejoin the hike the following day, free of charge.
Ascend Mellavaara hill and visit our private wilderness camp to seek the Northern Lights.
