Arctic Circle Ice Karting

A winter experience on the Arctic Circle

Ice Karting – thrills on the edge of the wilderness

On the Arctic Circle, winter brings crisp air, crunching snow and a whole new feel to driving. Join us at Napapiiri Café for a winter day that combines the fun of ice karting, friendly competition and a cosy moment by an open fire.

On the ice track, smooth acceleration and precise steering make all the difference. Snow flies, the corners test your skills and smiles grow beneath the helmets. No previous driving experience is needed: you will receive instructions before heading out to enjoy the track at your own pace.

Between driving sessions, take a break in a traditional kota hut with hot juice and gingerbread biscuits by the open fire. Bring your friends, family or group and enjoy winter on the Arctic Circle!

When can you join?

From December to March, Monday to Saturday, 10:00–13:30. The activity is subject to weather conditions and will not take place if the temperature falls below −20 °C.
