Feel like an authentic Arctic explorer on this survival course in the Pyhä-Luosto National Park. You'll learn how to cope with the extreme cold and build a quinzee.

Pyhä Survival Course

We'll meet at 10 am at the Colorado Bar & Grill and venture into the heart of the Pyhä-Luosto National Park to start our arctic survival course. The guide will introduce the essential equipment for an expedition, including sleeping bags and mattresses.

Participants will learn what to wear in extreme cold and how to cook in cold climates. The experience includes a light lunch of bread and sausages.

Next, we'll use snow shovels to prepare and build a quinzee, the traditional Lappish igloo, which hikers utilize to survive Arctic nights.

At the end of the activity, we'll return to the starting point to conclude at 6 pm.
