HUSKY SAFARI
Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure with friendly husky dogs who are always happy to meet new people. After a brief introduction to dog sledding and safety instructions, you’ll set off on a safari through the snowy landscape. After the adventure, enjoy hot juice and snack and remember to give your dog team a well deserved pets.
HEALING THROUGH NATURE – MAKE YOUR OWN TRADITIONAL RESIN CREAM
You will travel just 15 minutes from the village to the peaceful shores of Lake Tulijärvi, where the forest surrounds you and everyday noise fades away. After arriving, you will put on snowshoes and head into the snowy woodland to explore and search for spruce tree resin — nature’s own healing ingredient.
As you walk through the forest, you will learn how trees protect
themselves. When a tree is wounded, resin seals and heals the damage. For centuries, people in Finland have used this same natural remedy to treat skin problems, small wounds, rashes and even mosquito bites.
After gathering resin, you will gather around an open fire. While snacks are grilled over the flames, you will slowly cook and prepare your own traditional resin cream outdoors, following old local knowledge. The scent of spruce, smoke and fresh forest air makes the experience truly unique. At the end of the experience, you will take home your own handmade natural remedy — and a deeper connection to the healing power of northern nature.
PEAT & INFRARED SAUNA
When you want the ultimate relaxing and natural experience, try a peat sauna! A peat sauna relaxes the body and relieves stress and has a deep cleansing effect on the skin. The peat used in the sauna is collected from the Kuhmo nature and has been tested and studied in a laboratory to be safe.
Infrared radiation soaks into tissue and causes heavy perspiration without the uncomfortable feeling of high temperature. In infrared sauna perspiration is three times more than in a conventional sauna. The metabolism accelerates, the heart strengthens, blood circulation increases, and oxygen uptake improves.
