Fabulous half day trip! All of us were first timers - our guide explained everything clearly, had a smile on his face the whole time and continuously checked on everyone - each going at our own pace. I’ve only been skiing twice and didn’t actually like it. I booked this as my partner wanted to try cross country and I’m so glad I did. The track has grooves in it which your skis slot into, making it so much easier than downhill skiiing. I can’t recall our guide’s name but he was originally from Chile and was super patient with all our group. We had a great time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.

absolutely fantastic experience. Amazing scenery Skiiing through the forest. Much easier than down House skiing so don’t let that put you off. Our gate Thomas was terrific/ prodessional and good fun

Jack_Y

Cancelled on us at 11:20pm when we were to do it 10am on the following morning. Luckily we got booked with a much better tour provider. Wouldn’t recommend unless you want to gamble on your holiday activities bookings. No apology either.

Our guide Tuija gave us beginners a great introduction to Nordic skiing. Highly recommend! The three hour tour is sufficient to get a good idea of the sport.

After a pick up from our hotel, our guide for the day, Reeta, took us to the main office to make sure we had all the equipment and clothing we would need for the day. We were very fortunate to be the only ones on the excursion and Reeta couldn't have looked after us better. She drove us to the nearby track and after a quick introduction we were off into the beautiful forest. We had a slight issue with ski poles which Reeta quickly addressed and put right. Reeta also checked in with us all at regular intervals as we all have different fitness levels and happily took photos and videos for us throughout the day. We stopped for lunch in the middle of the forest at a firepit where we had a huge range of food (meat and vegetarian) to try. This was accompanied by delicious hot berry juice or tea. After we were all well fed we continued on the track back to the minibus. We were a little concerned fitness wise how we would cope with a full day, but Reeta allowed us to go at our own pace and it is certainly an activity we look forward to doing again in the future. An unforgettable day with some great pictures and videos.

We enjoyed lovely trip to a local skiing track. Our guide Reeta was very helpful and friendly. She explained us how to use gear and ski for the first time. I would recommend this experience to anyone who wants to try cross-country skiing.

This is our first ever cross country skiing experience and it was spectacular. Our tour guide Reetta is the best tour guide we have ever met, this tour is a good fit for beginners. It was fun and memorable for us!
