The night safari
The safari house is tucked in a private forest clearing minutes from Levi. Step out of the transfer and the resort is already gone — it is dark, it is quiet, and the only light is the one the guide carries. The route runs on Levi’s public marked trails and sections of privately owned land that only STG guests can access. When the trail turns onto private ground, the last of the other snowmobiles disappears. The pace stays at 30–45 km/h throughout — no sleigh, no reason to slow down.
Halfway through, the engines cut out. The kota sits on a vast frozen swamp, far from roads, far from village lights. The sky here is 360 degrees and unobstructed, with the northern horizon open. The kota is prepared and warmed in advance — the fire is ready when the group arrives. Guests grill sausage, pour hot drinks, and look up. The northern lights cannot be promised — they depend on solar activity and a clear night — but the position is among the best in the Levi area for seeing them when they come. After the stop, the second half of the ride back through the dark forest.
Who this is for
- Adults looking for the full Arctic night experience: speed, darkness, fire and open sky
- Northern lights hopefuls who also want the warmth of a kota stop
- Couples and small groups wanting an evening adventure in genuine wilderness

Disclaimer — Snowmobile Safaris
Damage to snowmobiles: All snowmobiles are insured as required by Finnish law, subject to the Finnish Motor Liability Insurance Act. Clients are liable for damage caused to snowmobiles. The tour price includes accident insurance with a maximum deductible of €950 per driver. The deductible can be reduced to €350 by purchasing a waiver (€35) at the time of booking or in the office before departure. If the driver does not follow the Finnish Road Traffic Act or guide’s instructions, all damages must be paid in full — waivers and deductibles do not apply.
Personal injuries: Snowmobile programs can be physically demanding. Snowmobiling is not recommended for pregnant women or people with back or hip problems. Guests with heart disease, asthma, diabetes, epilepsy or other relevant conditions should consult a medical professional before participating. Each participant is personally responsible for assessing their ability to take part. Comprehensive travel insurance is strongly recommended.
Driver’s licence: Finnish law requires snowmobile drivers to be at least 18 years old and hold a valid driving licence accepted in Finland. Accepted licences: categories B, T, A1 or A issued in EU/EEA countries or countries party to the Geneva or Vienna Conventions, or otherwise officially recognised by Finland. Electronic licences are not officially accepted. A licence issued in a country not recognised by Finland is not valid for driving a snowmobile — the holder may only participate as a passenger.
Alcohol and drugs: Tolerance is zero. Finnish law strictly prohibits driving a snowmobile under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Drivers may be breathalysed before departure. Participation will be denied if under the influence; no refund applies.
Speed and trails: The official speed limit for snowmobiles in Finland is 60 km/h. Driving is only permitted on marked trails. Please bring your driving licence — police patrols operate on snowmobile tracks.
STG reserve the right to adjust routes, schedules or durations due to weather, safety or participant health. STG may discontinue the safari if a participant is considered a danger to themselves or others or is in poor health.
