Snowmobile Northern Lights Family Safari with Campfire, Levi
A 3-hour evening snowmobile safari for families with children from age 3, operating Nov–Apr in three seasonal pricing periods. Children under 130 cm ride in a sled pulled by the guide’s snowmobile throughout the route. Adult drivers must be 18+ with a valid driving licence.
The route combines public marked trails with private land sections accessible only to STG guests. With a sled in use, the group travels at 20–25 km/h. Standard price covers one seat on a shared snowmobile (two persons per machine); drivers and passengers may swap halfway. Adults may also opt to ride in a sleigh. Solo supplement available on request. Children over 130 cm who can reach the footrests may ride behind an adult driver at adult price.
Midway stop at a private kota on a vast frozen swamp, prepared and warmed in advance. Guests grill sausage and have a hot drink. The kota is on privately owned land; no other groups share the stop. 360-degree open sky, no light pollution — one of the better positions near Levi for aurora viewing when conditions allow. Northern lights cannot be guaranteed.
