Arctic Snowshoe Moments

Snowshoe Adventure at Aurora River Camp

Just 15 minutes from Kiruna, Aurora River Camp in Poikkijärvi is your doorway to a calm, sparkling winter world.

Strap on modern snowshoes and glide through snow-draped birch forests and along the frozen banks of the Torne River. The only sounds are the soft crunch underfoot and the whisper of Arctic air—pure, unhurried Lapland.

This experience is built for everyone: families with curious kids, couples chasing a cozy winter memory, solo travelers seeking quiet, and small groups who want an easy, feel-good activity. Trails are gentle, the pace is relaxed, and no previous experience is needed—your guide keeps things simple, safe and fun.

The heart of the tour is our campfire moment on the snow. Learn the basics of safe winter fire-making, then gather around the warmth to toast big marshmallows and sip steaming hot cocoa. It’s a simple ritual that feels unforgettable—hands warmed, smiles wider, cameras out.

With small groups (max 8), the atmosphere stays personal and authentic. You’re never rushed; there’s time for photos, questions and quiet. In 2.5 hours of activity (exclusive of pickup/drop-off) you’ll collect the kind of memories that define a Lapland trip—calm, connection and a little fireside magic.
