Sweden Expedition 2027, Deep Snow Riding

Sweden Expedition 2027 is a three day deep snow snowmobile expedition run by Arctic House Safaris as part of its Extreme programme. Riders gather in Levi in Finnish Lapland, then travel to northern Sweden to ride off-trail through open snowfields, slopes, forest and rolling Arctic hills. The operator lists the area as Riksgränsen and Kvikkjokk, and the departure is in April 2027. At the time of checking it was shown as sold out and open for enquiries.

The riding is the point. The operator describes deep snow riding as moving through untouched snow without existing tracks, creating your own lines, and compares it to riding fresh powder on a snowboard. Days are active and physical, focused on technique, balance and control rather than distance. The operator recommends basic to intermediate snowmobile experience or a background in motorsport, and a willingness to ride off-trail and manage the machine in deep snow.

The itinerary runs from the arrival evening briefing and safety training in Levi, through travel to Sweden and a half day of riding fundamentals, to a full day of deep snow riding and a half day ride before the return. Groups are three to four riders with professional Arctic guides. The operator offers three styles: Full Extreme with tents or simple huts and open fire meals, Extreme with Comfort with huts or cabins and a support vehicle, and Extreme with Luxury with villas or hotels and a private chef.

Snowmobiles, technical support, safety training, daily briefings and meals during the expedition are included, and riding gear packages are optional. A valid B or T driving licence is required. The minimum age is 18, or 15 with a guardian and a licence, subject to insurance approval. No price is published, so the first step is the operator’s short pre-information form, followed by a personal meeting. The operator runs the trip and takes the booking.
