Holidays in Finland - Winter Wilderness & Snowshoeing Finnish Karelia is a vast area of pristine lakes, endless forests and mountains. By February the winter days are a bit warmer and longer – it’s a wonderful time to explore the snowy landscape. From a cosy base you’ll head out for your first exciting activity - snowshoeing across this beautiful white wilderness! Activities in the Snow Next you set off by snowmobile – it’s a real thrill whizzing through the snow! During your stay you’ll have plenty of time to build igloos and have snowball fights. You’ll also have the opportunity to walk to the summit of Ukko Koli, for the most famous view in Finland over icy Lake Pielinen, and for some downhill skiing optional.
