In the period from December to the end of February (1.12. - 28.2) we offer an early evening version of the program “POLARMAN’S CAMP + SNOW IGLOO PARK LIVE”, called “BLUE MOMENT”. This is what we call the period of the polar night in December, when all nature is colored in magical blue color. The early evening program is suitable for families with children as it starts at 15:00 and 17:30 and lasts about 1,5 hours on the spot.
Welcome to Polarman’s camp and Snow Igloo Park, our exclusive and private place just outside Levi without tourist buzz and with unobstructed almost 360⁰ sky view, no light pollution and warm Aurora dome shelter!
Our transfer from Levi will take about 10 minutes. Upon arrival the Polarman will welcome you inside the private camp area, get you seated at the open fire on the reindeer skin and introduce you to amenities and attractions included in your entrance ticket.
Polarman will invite you to follow him for the mysterious Aurora Hunt experience on a beautiful walk along the river. In the autumn time, you have a chance to enjoy so called double Aurora through the reflection in the river. If we spot the Northern Lights, we will use our professional camera with sensitive matrix to capture the beautiful moment with you, Lights and arctic nature in the background.
It's time to check out our unique Snow Igloo Park. It’s located side by side with Polarman’s camp. We start to build the Snow Park as soon as constant freezing temperatures settle, usually in November. By December we usually manage to build most of the snow park constructions, however, the building process continues in December as well. The whole park is surrounded by walls made of snow and ice. The heart of the park is the big Snow Igloo, the other snow constructions are Inuit snow igloo, snow slide for children, snow maze and of course snowman. The snow walls and other buildings are nicely illuminated and look truly amazing in the darkness. Our Polarman will invite adults and children into the big snow igloo to take part in the winter survival course. For children we have a snow playground with tobogganing on the snowslide, snow maze and tunnels. As the winter season goes by, the Snow Park grows bigger thanks to our unique “Build Your Own Snow Igloo” program. You can check the Igloos built by other guests on a 3-hour masterclass program.
Polarman will then invite you to go inside our warm Aurora dome. Temperature inside stays +15 degrees or higher. You can sit comfortably and watch our blazing fireplace, while we serve you warm drinks and cookies.
It's movie time! Enjoy a unique 20-minute movie on a big screen that will show you 7 different seasons of Lapland and Northern Lights. Polarman tells you some interesting stories and legends about this natural phenomenon and arctic life.
Finally, it’s time for an outdoor Lappish BBQ experience! Sit comfortably around the open firepit while we offer you sausages on a stick to grill on the fire, followed by marshmallows.
We share more interesting stories about the arctic life, have a good laugh together and enjoy watching the sky.
All the time during the program our staff will keep an eye on the sky. As soon as we spot an indication of the Aurora, we’ll call you so can enjoy the most fascinating show of the arctic nature and our staff will take photos of the Northern lights with you in front. After the program we will process the photos and will send them to you by email.
If you feel cold at any time during the program, you can always find shelter and warm up inside the Aurora dome, have some more hot drinks and more cookies.
