Finnish Lapland
The Arctic heart of our operation — aurora nights, husky trails, reindeer herding country and the properties we know best.
Where we operate from
Finnish Lapland is where Nordic Privé began, and it remains the region we cover in the most depth. Rovaniemi is the main gateway with direct winter flights from several European cities; Kittilä serves the western fells and Levi; Ivalo opens the far north around Inari and Saariselkä.
It is a large area, and the parts of it are not alike. The fells of the west suit ski and activity programmes; the eastern forests are quieter and better for aurora and wildlife; the far north is Sámi reindeer-herding country. We place clients according to what they actually want, not what is easiest to book.

Stay, experience, dine, arrive
Aurora cabins and wilderness lodges
Glass-roofed cabins, small wilderness lodges and private log houses — chosen for position and quiet.
Huskies, reindeer and aurora nights
Private husky teams, Sámi reindeer visits, snowshoe and snowmobile routes, and aurora evenings led by guides who watch the forecast all day.
Arctic produce, simply handled
Reindeer, Arctic char, cloudberries and forest herbs — cooked simply in lodge kitchens and a small number of serious restaurants.
Transfers that work in winter
Private winter-equipped transfers, small-group airport handling and internal flights when the distances demand it.

Finnish Lapland by season
Polar Night
The sun stays below the horizon in the far north. Long blue twilight, deep snow and the strongest Christmas demand — book early.
Light and Snow
Snow at its deepest with daylight returning fast. The best combination for activity programmes and still a long aurora window.
Midnight Sun and Autumn
Continuous daylight in midsummer, then the ruska autumn colour in September. Hiking, paddling and berry season.
Ways to shape this journey
Starting points, not packages. Every programme is rebuilt around the client in front of you.
Aurora and Snow
Two nights on the fells, two nights in wilderness quiet — with the evenings decided by the forecast on the day.

Rovaniemi arrival, a fell property and the far north around Inari, with husky, reindeer and Sámi cultural days between.
Design this journey →Regions that combine well
Inari & Saariselkä
The far north of Finland — Sámi heartland, the great lake of Inari, and the darkest, clearest aurora skies we work with.
Finnish Lakeland
Europe’s largest lake system — summer sauna culture, brown bear watching in the eastern forests, and a slower kind of Finland.
Helsinki & the Archipelago
A design capital on the Baltic — serious architecture, a sauna culture that never left, and an archipelago that starts at the harbour steps.
