A short bilingual post about opportunity to join an awesome guided packrafting adventure in Lapland, with a 20% discount! Sorry for the marketing but I thought you might be interested…

Lyhyt tietoisku mahdollisuudesta päästä mukaan upealla opastetulle packraft-vaellukselle Lappiin 20% alennuksella! Pahoittelen markkinointia blogissa, mutta ajattelin, että tämä saattaisi kiinnostaa…

In English:

Due cancellations my previously fully booked guided packrafting tour in Lapland has now a few places open and as this comes on a short notice, I will be selling them with 20% discount. Instead of 750 euros, you’ll pay only 600 euros!

The tour will take place on 5.9.-13.9.2015 starting from the tiny remote village of Kilpisjärvi (Finland) and travel through the remote wilderness areas from Finland to Norway ending to the gorgeous canyon-like Reisadalen valley in Norway.

During the tour we will hike around 60 kilometers, paddle some 15 kilometers through beautiful alpine lakes and in the end enjoy a fast but easy 30km ride down the Reisaelva river in the gorgeous valley. In early September mosquitoes are long gone, autumn colors are starting to shine, nights are dark enough for auroras and days are still quite long and also likely warm. It’s great time for a tour in Lapland!

The tour starts from and ends to Kilpisjärvi (Finland). The price includes:
– pre-tour consultation
– guiding (in English and Finnish)
– transportation from Reisadalen back to Kilpisjärvi
– two nights indoors (before and after the tour, in 2 person rooms)
– the use of packraft (Alpackaraft with spraydeck or similar high-end raft) and related equipment
– shared group safety equipment

Previous hiking/backpacking experience and reasonable fitness level is necessary but no previous packrafting or paddling experience needed!

And for your inspiration, here is a story and more photos from a previous tour on the same route. The last time was pretty damn good.

Enrollment open untill 16.8.2015 – so act now!

In Finnish:

Peruutusten vuoksi syksyn Reisadalenin packraft-vaellukselle vapautui pari paikkaa ja lyhyen varoitusajan vuoksi ajattelin tarjota niitä 20%-alennuksella eli matkaan pääsisi nyt tasan 600 eurolla!

Reissun ajankohta on 5.-13.9.2015 ja matka alkaa Kilpisjärveltä ja päättyy Reisadalenin laaksoon Norjassa, josta paluukyyti Kilpisjärvelle. Lisätietoja ohjelmasta tämän sivun lopussa. Ja inspiraation lähteeksi kertomus (englanniksi) aiemmalta reissuilta.

Ilmoittautuminen 16.8.2015 mennessä!
