Lapland in winter is a world of silence, snow and northern light.
The forests are covered in deep snow, the air is crisp and clear, and the northern lights often appear above the horizon on dark winter nights.
The Lapland Winter Riding Holiday at Ranch Kuulas allows guests to experience this environment through horses and traditional northern activities.
During the week, participants ride Finnhorses, Finland’s native horse breed. Known for their calm temperament and strength, they are perfectly suited for riding in winter terrain.
The program includes several guided trail rides through the surrounding forests and hills. Guests also experience a traditional horse-drawn sleigh ride, a winter activity that has been part of northern life for generations.
One day is reserved for exploring the city of Rovaniemi, including the famous Santa Claus Village. This gives guests the opportunity to see another side of Lapland while still enjoying the peaceful atmosphere of the countryside ranch.
In the evenings, guests return to Ranch Kuulas to relax in the sauna, share meals prepared with local ingredients and enjoy the quiet rhythm of winter life.
The highlight for many visitors is the evening ride through the snowy forest while searching for the northern lights.
This holiday is designed to offer a complete winter experience in Lapland: horses, nature, culture and moments of deep calm.
