Itinerary

We drive from village Inari about 20 min to our home. On the way we can see beautiful landscape of lake Muddus, wilderness area Muotkatunturi and river Kettujoki (weather permitting). We live near wilderness area Muotkatunturi which is like a “second living room” to us. Our place is tranquil; we even cannot see the lights of our nearest neighbor. Upon arrival you get to know more about our home and lifestyle in the Arctic where bush craft skills are part of everyday life. Our snowshoe walk takes you into the ancient woods along lakes and mystic mires. The forest we see belongs to the oldest forests in Lapland. During the walk we observe possible animal tracks and nearby feeding birds. Siberian Jay and Siberian Tit are commonly around and with good luck we might see even Elk and Mountain Hare during the walk. By mid-February or early March we start looking for first Pine Grosbeaks to return. You also learn about the importance of the snow for the arctic life. Before transfer back to Inari we enjoy open-fire hot drink and local snacks in our kota.

A perfect start of our trip to Lapland

Published on Feb, 2025

What a perfect start of our trip to Lapland! Terhi is a friendly, knowledgable guide. We really enjoyed the well organized activity with a lot of new information and knowledge about nature (plants, trees, vegetation and wildlife). We did the snowshoe walk at the first day of our trip. This helped us to see and understand a lot more about the nature/environment which we visited the days after the snowshoe walk. It once again created more awareness about the consequences of climate change as well. Her English was excellent and my son (11 years) was old enough to join and really enjoyed it (I would not recommend to take too young kids, although that depends on their span of attention of course ;) but if you have questions on this, Terhi is really willing to answer them). Also the amount of people joining (max. 6) was perfect. At the end of the trip we had some nice coffee/tea with a bun around the inside campfire, while watching the birds fly by. What a hospitality both by Terhi and Arto!

Beautiful, fun and instructive

Published on Dec, 2024

Arto and Terhi are very passionate about their work and they share their knowledge very generously. We learned a lot and also had a lot of fun during the snowshoe walk. I am now able to recognize red fox and hare tracks and it brings a lot of joy during hikes. Also the food was delicious. We highly recommend!

Magic experience in Arctic Nature

Published on Mar, 2024

We did the snowshoe walk on an unexplored wild nature and it was a magical experience. Arto and Terhi made us feel very welcome from the beginning when we booked the activity. They are a wonderful couple and both passionate about nature. We learnt a lot with Terhi about the local nature, flora and fauna, the local people and Sami’s culture. After the walk we had a tasty snack and tea around the fire and we could see some species of birds. It was the last activity we did during our holidays in Inari but it was definitely the best. Thank you very much!

Top day out in nature

Published on Mar, 2024

We had fantastic day with our guide Terhi, she really looked after us and ensured we got the best of her expertise in identifying the local fauna and flora. She fitted us out with snowshoes and boots perfectly. At the end of the walk we had a superb light lunch of local produce in a traditional fire hut all the time observing the wildlife. I thoroughly recommend this excursion with Terhi for anyone who wants to experience nature. Pickup and drop off from our hotel was flawless.

Amazing Experience

Published on Mar, 2024

This was a highlight of our visit to northern Finland and a really special experience. Terhi and Arto are a wonderful couple who care deeply about the environment and want to share their knowledge and experience of the local flora and fauna with their guests. It was akin to spending time with a couple of friends and we learned so much. We can’t recommend ATNature enough and Arto and Terhi go the extra mile to provide you with an experience to remember. A wonderful snowshoe walk was topped off with a coffee, a cheese and moose toasted snack and a home cooked muffin in their lovely cabin, heated up over a real fire. We thoroughly recommend this experience. If you are an independent traveler it really is worthwhile supporting smaller independent businesses. You certainly won’t be disappointed with AT Nature.
