“By far to much touristic 👎 and definitely too expensive. We decided to book the fishing toor with the snowmobile. We were 12 snowmobiles driving all together either max 20 km/h. They stoped every 10 m to help one or the other guest. In the changing room it was compleately packed, almost impossible to move and on the fishing spot they has just 2 machine to make the holes… for 24 guests 🫤 I would avoid this company!”

“This was a truly excellent trip and one my children will remember in years to come. We were picked up at the hotel by Andrew. The transport was so comfortable and after a beautiful drive, we arrived at a beautifully quiet forest. There was an open fire to keep warm and the whole setting was stunning. Andrew showed us (2 adults, 8 year old and 6 year old) how to drill through the ice. The kids loved it. We fished for a while and caught 4 fish and had loads of bites. It snowed gently while we fished.l and we had warm blueberry juice and gingerbread. Once we’d had enough…”
