    In Ruka you can rent a stiga drivable sledge and take condola on top of the downhill ski and ride sledge down.

    So fun! I grew up snowmobiling here in Michigan, such a fun winter activity. That would be so cool to do it in Lapland!

    Well how fun was that! Jenny you were smart to be the passenger. I grew up with snowmobiles. It definitely takes a time or two to get used to driving one. But they are fun. Sledding is a lot of fun. Just walking back up the hill isn’t so much. ❄️ 🛷☃️💗

    O, wow, sliding down the hill. It's my cup of tea since I was a little girl. It is so beautiful in Finland. You guys have more snow than we, in Ottawa this year. Great❣️

    Fun fact: On ice (lake, river or sea) there are no speed limits. Fun start's at 60 mph

    • @aako
      @aako 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      @anssisuutari6971 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      In fact, the maximum permitted speed on ice is 80 kmh (about 50 mph) and even there on the official route 60 kmh (about 40 mph).

    Ready or not, Finland's longest toboggan is in Saariselkä Ski & Sport Resort: "Saariselkä Ski & Sport Resort Aurora Tobogganing Saariselkä" and "Tommi Ulmanen Saariselkä Pulkkamäki 1800m".

      @zoolkhan 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      when you hit a treestump at 100km/h your enthusiasm will be seriously curbed ;)
      they can be fast, but tourists generall have no idea how to handle them or where to go fast and where not
      (snow consistency, frozen lakes, hidden treestumps, deer crossings, other crossings...)
      These tours in lapland usually have a native (saami tribesman maybe) driving ahead.
      As a nature lover i am seriously annoyed at the loud engines.
      Going in a dog sled is more my thing.. while they race you through the snows all you hear is the wind and the snow...

    We were in Saariselkä last winter driving snowmobiles, have to say that the tracks in there are really great! When you go driving solo and go a bit faster, you should not wear so much clothes cause you will get hot.

    Once again you had a great time. And the trees were covered nicely with snow just like in postcards. Did you ride to the top of the fell Kaunispää? I haven't riden a snowmobile for ages. Actually I don't even remember when the last time was, but very long time ago.

    • @JacobandJennyTravel
      @JacobandJennyTravel  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The trees were so beautifully covered with snow❄️ We did ride to the top of a mountain, but I do not recall the name of it, so it is probably the one you are talking about!!

    • @oh2mp
      @oh2mp 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@JacobandJennyTravel I guess it was that because it's the highest one just next to the Saariselkä "town". There's a restaurant on the top. Kaunispää means literally "beautiful head" and that it really is!

      I recommend that you drive the snowmobile alone, then controlling the sled is easier and more comfortable than riding with a passenger.

      Also, the safari rides make the routes very bumpy. If you head to another direction (Laanila / with smoke sauna) from the gas station, the route is smooth as silk and easier to handle. 😎
