"Jobs fill your pockets.

Adventure fills your soul."

 

Fording the wild rivers of Iceland in a jeep,

racing through the snowy white landscapes of Lapland with huskies,

 exploring the impenetrable green rainforest of Uganda with a ranger

or admiring the endless vastness of the Maasai Mara in a hot-air balloon.

  

Or, like on the left,

snowmobiling on the frozen lake Inari in Finland.

Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort, Finnish-Lapland

 

In the Northern wilderness 250 km north of the arctic circle sits Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort, a family hotel. It was the glass igloos and log cabins that put them on the world map. But now, in the middle of the wilderness, there is so much more to discover, including Santa´s entire world! And husky-sleighrides, raindeer-safaris, cross-country tours and Aurora-hunting snowmobile excursions through the crisp snow in the middle of the starry night. 

Two restaurants offer delicious local Lappish cuisine. Although located surrounded by pure nature, all accommodations are within walking distance to one of the main buildings with either the traditional Kelo restaurant or the West Village Aurora Restaurant with its famous glass igloo bar.
