Electric Snow Scooter Ride & Ice Karting

A winter action day for thrill seekers

Available on request

Spend an action-packed winter day combining electric snow scootering and ice karting. This experience is designed for those who enjoy movement, speed, and a good dose of Arctic adrenaline.

We begin with electric snow scooters, cruising through snowy forests and winter trails. These eco-friendly scooters offer a smooth and quiet ride, while still delivering plenty of fun as you glide through the winter landscape. You will spend about 1–1,5 hours exploring the terrain at a lively but controlled pace.

After working up an appetite, we pause for a snack. It is a chance to warm up, refuel, and get ready for the next round of action.

Then it is time to head to the ice track. On a frozen circuit set in the forest, you will drive winter-ready go-karts built for snowy and icy conditions. Just bring your focus and a bit of competitive spirit. Lap times are recorded, so you can challenge your friends and see who sets the fastest time of the day.

This is a winter activity day for speed lovers, combining Arctic scenery, playful competition, and high-energy fun in one memorable experience.

FAQ

Do I need a driving license to drive the go-karts?

No driving licence is required. The go-karts are driven on a closed ice track, and clear instructions are given before you start.

Do I need prior experience with electric snow scooters or karting?

No previous experience is needed. Both activities begin with a safety briefing and guidance, and the pace is adjusted to suit the group.

How physically demanding is this activity day?

The day is active but accessible to most guests in normal health. You will be standing while riding the snow scooter and actively driving during karting, so a basic level of balance and coordination is needed.

Is this activity suitable for families or younger participants?

This experience is best suited for older children, teenagers, and adults who enjoy active experiences. Recommended minimum age is 15.
