During the Midnight Sun season, the Arctic landscape transforms.
The sun circles the sky without setting, bathing forests and open fields in soft golden light throughout the night. Time slows down, and the northern wilderness becomes a remarkable setting for sport.
The Lapland Cup takes place at Ranch Kuulas in Rovaniemi, Finland, bringing together horseback archers for two days of competition in this extraordinary environment.
Riders compete in two disciplines:
Raid
Tower
Each discipline challenges different aspects of horseback archery. Raid tests speed and flow along the track, while Tower emphasizes timing, accuracy and shooting rhythm.
The competition is IHAA accredited, ensuring international standards and professional judging.
Ranch Kuulas offers varied natural terrain for the tracks, combining open fields and forest surroundings that create both technical challenges and breathtaking scenery.
Beyond the competition itself, the event also provides an opportunity for riders to connect with the international horseback archery community and experience the unique atmosphere of Lapland’s summer.
