Vuokatti is a sport resort known for the excellent cross-country ski tracks. You can find winter in their ski and snowboard tunnels all year round. Vuokatti is located in north-eastern Finland, which gets their first natural snow typically in early November and the winter season lasts until mid-april. The distance from the town of Kajaani, where there's an airport, is only 35km. There are 150 kilometers of ski tracks in total, out of which 32 kilometres are lighted.
Your apartment is located between the slopes, where all the services are within a walking distance. Depending on the size of your group you will get either a small, medium-size or big apartment with a well-equipped kitchen and a sauna.
Here are the highlights of your experience:

In the aftrenoon husky safari ( 2/sledge, 6 km). We have selected the Alfons' Runaway, which suites for the whole family. It is a 6 km long forest route, which is long enough to make you feel the charm of sledge dog driving. The route is driven in pairs so that in halfway the adults can change places and both get to try mushing. Alternatively you can choose an Aurora Safari taking place from 17-21 in the evening.
