You’ll ride through snowy forests on a guided snowmobile safari around Levi Fell, spot reindeer tracks (and maybe actual reindeer), and warm up inside a cozy Lappish hut café with hot drinks and fresh buns. All gear’s included — just show up ready for cold cheeks and laughter you’ll remember long after the trip.
The first thing I noticed was the way the snow muffled everything — except the low rumble of our snowmobiles. We’d barely left the edge of Levi when our guide, Sanni, waved us to slow down. She pointed out fresh reindeer tracks crossing the trail, and I swear I caught a glimpse of antlers between the birches. The cold stung my cheeks at first but after a few minutes in those thick thermal suits (they hand them out before you go), it just felt kind of…invigorating? Not sure that’s the word, but it woke me up.
We looped around Levi Fell for what felt like ages — sometimes all you could see was white on white, then suddenly there’d be this blue shadow or a patch where the wind had swept the snow into weird little waves. Sanni kept checking if we were okay over her shoulder. At one point she laughed because I nearly missed a turn while gawking at the view (honestly, easy mistake). The main keyword here is snowmobile safari Levi Fell — and yeah, it’s not just for daredevils. There were kids bundled up in a sleigh behind us, giggling every time we hit a bump.
Eventually we stopped at this wooden Lappish hut café — smoke curling from the chimney, door creaking open. Inside smelled like pine and something sweet baking. We crowded around a fire while Sanni poured coffee (or tea if you wanted) and handed out these soft buns that tasted faintly of cardamom. It was quiet except for someone’s boots squeaking on the floorboards and people trading stories about their hometowns. I didn’t expect to feel so…settled? Maybe it was just being warm again after all that wind.
On the way back, my hands finally thawed enough to wave at another group passing by — their guide shouted something in Finnish that made everyone laugh, though I only caught “hyvä!” So yeah, if you’re thinking about a day trip snowmobile safari around Levi Fell with local guides and coffee stops (plus reindeer sightings if you’re lucky), this one’s pretty memorable. Even now I can almost smell that woodsmoke when I think about it.
