Join us on a tour up to a snowy Mt. Åreskutan. We take the cable car up the mountain and enjoy flavors, beautiful views and interesting stories around Åre and the locally produced delicacies we taste during the tour. Our local guide take us on an accessible adventure and journey on the mountain where everyone can participate, regardless of physical condition. Some of the taste samples are typical Sami snacks (so be prepared to try something that you probably have never tried before) and you will also visit some place which tourists usually do not have access to. At the top we make a short “taste tour” with snowshoes, which is adapted to weather conditions and group fitness. (N.B! If the cable car for some reason is closed we will organise an alternative experience in either the VM8-lift or the mountain railway- Bergbanan).

Med helt miljövänliga och lättkörda “el-skotrar” ger vi oss av på en tur i Åres omgivningar vilket kan vara allt från en tur i fjällmiljö, en mysig tur i byn eller en annorlunda transport från hotellet. Vi startar och avslutar turen efter önskemål. El-skotrarna är lika enkla att framföra som en vanlig cykel och är registrerade som cyklar, vilket gör att de får framföras på väg. Innan vi ger oss av håller guiden en grundlig genomgång och övningskörning så att alla känner sig trygga. Deltagarna utrustas med hjälm och givetvis serverar vi en härlig fika vid något av våra smultronställen längs vägen.

An unforgettable winter adventure in Åre, where we get really close up to the friendly and cute reindeers. You can feed them right from your hand. Besides to cuddle with the reindeers the tour also includes lassoing, making a fire outside the reindeer-fence and enjoy a delicious snack. Take the opportunity to taste some locally produced traditional Sami delicacy.
We pick you up and drive to our starting point in the southern Åre mountains, where we walk together with snowshoes (small children can be pulled in a sled by parents) to the reindeer-fence. Here we walk to the reindeers and feed them with lichen right out of our hands. Afterwards we try activities such as throwing a lasso, making a fire and enjoy some snacks beside the fire. There is plenty of time to take photos with the reindeer.
It’s a great activity for the whole family!
