About this experience

Experience the tranquil beauty of Pyhä–Luosto National Park on a memorable day trip through  scenic Arctic landscapes and gentle fell terrain. The journey takes you to the Lampivaara fell,  where you will enjoy a comfortable snowcat ride to the top, offering wonderful views of the  surrounding wilderness.  

At the Amethyst Mine, you will hear the fascinating story of this rare Arctic gemstone and its  geological origins. After the introduction, step into the mine area and try your hand at digging for  your own amethyst. If luck is on your side, you may keep the stone you find as a unique personal  souvenir.  

During the excursion, you will enjoy a light lunch by the open fire, allowing you to warm up and  relax while surrounded by the serene winter wilderness.
