Overnight River Rafting Adventure in Lapland

What to Expect during your Overnight Rafting Tour

This unique two-day rafting trip takes you deep into Lapland’s wilderness, where adventure meets the calm rhythm of nature. Guided by professional rafting instructors, you will explore one of the region’s most beautiful rivers, known for its rich history and striking landscapes.

The experience begins with a safety briefing and gear fitting before you travel to the starting point of the river. Once on the water, your guide will teach you how to handle the raft and navigate small rapids safely. As you paddle through forested valleys and gentle waves, you will see golden reflections on the river and hear the soft rush of flowing water around the rocks.

In the evening, the group reaches a remote riverside site where you will spend the night. Depending on conditions, accommodation may be in a wilderness hut or comfortable tents. You will enjoy a warm dinner prepared from local ingredients and have time to relax by the fire, share stories, or take a short hike to explore the historic gold rush site nearby.

The next morning begins with a hearty breakfast in the open air before continuing downstream. The route includes calmer stretches and scenic rapids, with a final stop for a picnic lunch by the river before returning to the pick-up point.

Adventure and Flexibility

This tour is suitable for adventurous travelers who want to combine physical activity with authentic wilderness living. The itinerary adapts to the water level and weather conditions, ensuring both safety and enjoyment. Each raft is guided by a professional who steers the boat, allowing you to focus on paddling, observing, and experiencing Lapland’s nature.

The overnight setting offers a rare chance to disconnect completely, fall asleep to the sound of the river, and wake up to the freshness of a northern morning. Private departures can be arranged for small groups looking for a more personal adventure.
