Searching for Santa is a set of playful, unforgettable Christmas experiences for the young and the young at heart, set in Northern Lights Village.

Santa’s little helper Elf will meet you and other participating families and be your guide for the day. The day starts with gingerbread baking at the elves' turf house kitchen.

After the cookie moment, the Elf will take you to meet Santa’s flying reindeer. Unfortunately, the reindeer only fly on Christmas night, but you get to take a (short) ride on the reindeer-drawn sleigh through the snowy forest instead.

Then, it is time to go searching for Santa’s secret cabin. The Snowmobile-Elf will take your family on a heated sleigh ride into the forest. If you can find the cabin, Santa will most likely welcome your family in for a private chat and offer a symbolical gift.

Inclusions

• Guiding by an Elf in English
• Thermal Clothing inc. Overalls, Boots & Mittens
• Gingerbread Baking & Crafts
• Meeting the Reindeer and a Short ~10-minute Sleigh Ride
• Short Ride in the Snowy Forest on Heated Sleigh Pulled by a Snowmobile
• Meeting Santa Claus in his Cabin for approximately 10 Minutes
• Symbolical Gift

We need your help! Please read on:

1. Parents/Guardians are expected to work with the Northern Lights Village personnel, in order to ensure the experience is magical for the children.

2. Don't bring your own gifts for Santa to give as it may be unfair for other children. Instead, you may hand us the children's wishlist at check-in, for Santa to go through with them!
Please make sure the letter is well legible.

Please note that upon arrival, the reception team will hand over an invitation letter from the Elves, to join the in their quest to find Santa!

About
Join us for a magical hike under the stars in search of the Northern Lights! We'll start our journey at the resort and hike through the picturesque autumn fells to our wilderness camp. Along the way, we'll stop to admire the stunning scenery and learn about the local flora and fauna from our experienced guide.

Once we reach our camp, we'll warm up with a cup of delicious berry juice and roast some marshmallows over the campfire. Then, we'll settle in for the evening and wait for the Northern Lights to appear!

As soon as we see the first signs of the Aurora Borealis, we'll help you set up your camera and teach you how to take amazing photos of this natural phenomenon. We'll also be there to help you capture any other special moments you may have, such as spotting reindeer or other wildlife.

This tour is suitable for all ages and fitness levels, and we provide all the necessary gear, including warm clothing, headlamps, and cameras. So what are you waiting for? Book your spot today and experience the magic of the Northern Lights on foot!
