In the homeland of Santa-Klausa with snow of any problems.
We go on winter rest to Finland.
UNDER New year in Moscow sometimes there are any weather
Unexpectedness. For example, the rain, or suddenly completely can go
All snow, or, on the contrary, frost will thaw will strike such, that any
The fur coat will not rescue. Therefore that who would like to be saved from the weather
Anomalies is advised to go for holidays to Finland. Snow there
In the winter always, and odd fellows Finns in any way to it will not get used, and on
Any case at them in a stock is an artificial snowball, "if that"
They it always podsypjat.
Resorts.
Going to have a rest to Finland, the main thing not to miss with
Geography. In this country there are also noisy, cheerful resort small towns,
Simply stuffed with every possible entertainments, and is absolutely
Wild tourist settlements. Somewhere on the bank of lake in steam
Kilometres from each other there are the timbered small houses equipped with all
Necessary for a life, and the nearest settlement kilometres in 10,
Around only snow-covered wood. The best place for a solitude it is simple not
To find. To have a good time better to go, for example, in Vuokatti, Rovaniemi
Or Kusamo.
The Finnish resorts are good that fans of winter entertainments always
Will find to itself employment on taste. Everywhere is very well equipped
Ski lines, are laid routes, and both for mountain, and for
Running skis. In Finland it is good to go for a drive on mountain skiing to beginners and
To study in downhill racing by more skilled - mountains here low and
Flat enough. Certainly, for the mountain skiers spoilt by the Alpes,
The Finnish mountains will seem simply hummocks. But absence of the Alpine
"Steepnesses" it is compensated by an ideal status of lines and it is surprising
Beautiful snow, does not believe at all, that it present. Ski lines,
Especially in Northern Lapland, basically shined, that gives
To driving even some mystery. But shine lines not for
Beauty - in Lapland from December till January polar night. In the such
Time the dream of each tourist - to see the polar lights. It is said that
The most beautiful - at lake Kilpisjarvi also appears it there everyone
Night.
And the tourist centres were prepared for a New Year's eve. The main thing
The celebration will occur, certainly, in the homeland of the Grandfather of the Frost - in
The city of Rovaniemi. There, at ski stadium Ounasvaara, specially to
To new year it is constructed a millennium-villadzh. All village is made from
Snow, ice and other traditional lappish materials. Hardly
It is necessary this year Santa-Klausu: in its small house the present is planned
Pilgrimage. Expecting it, by New year the provident grandfather
Has expanded the possession: except the well-known small house visitors can come
In magic cave Sjuvjansenvaaru in five kilometres from Rovaniemi.
To reach a vault it is possible by a small special train or on
Snowmobile.
And townsmen of Kuopio, arrival of a new millenium are going to
To mark skating on streets of a city, which for a while
Holiday will be filled in by ice. Skating sports are very expensive to inhabitants
Kuopios, and, as is known, always give to visitors the most expensive, so
That too it will be offered to tourists to put on the fads.
Entertainments
Hardly there will be still such country which would offer so much
Winter entertainments. There will be no holiday to try
At least all offered safaris. Fans of doggies, can go
In travel on the dog team, though at two o'clock, though on pair
Days, and even for all week. For example, vosmidnevnyj a route
Ist-point Haski a safari, from Lieksy to Ilomantsi, extent 200
The km, line passes along the finljandsko-Russian border on territory
Kareliyas. At the same time it is possible to learn to operate the dog team. Passing
In day of 20-30 kilometres, for the night participants stop in
Tourist huts or a chalet. To be frightened words "hut" at all
Costs is very much even a civilised small house with all conveniences,
Switching on mikrovolnovku and a coffee maker.
Fans of winter fishing will unburden the heart on a safari from the subglacial
Fishing. At first you will go on snowmobiles on the Finnish woods, and
Then will try happiness in primanivanii fish by means of the rolling
Equipments for ice fishing. Upon termination of fishing all extraction
It will be solemnly prepared on a fire.
The most traditional safari is in olenej to a team. For fans
Speed and a gasoline smell very much will approach a safari on snowmobile on
To specially marked lines with traffic lights and transitions.
The most simple way to get acquainted with surrounding world - to go
On foot. Only not in ordinary footwear, and in snowshoes. In a safari
On snowshoes it is possible to go already for three days. In day, as
Rule, participants of a campaign pass 15-20 km, on road they study
To do a snow cave and to fish under ice.
As to excursions it is necessary to visit in perfect
The fantastic city of Kemi, that in Lapland. There is based
Unique in the world the tourist ice breaker - a vessel for ice
Adventures. Leaving in the high sea, a vessel stops, and
To passengers suggest to get out on ice for walk. And most
Courageous, having put on in warm water-proof suits, can bathe
In dark water of an ice ice-hole.
In Kemi the biggest snow lock will open for visitors. In
The huge palace ensemble from snow and ice enters the three-storied
Churchlet and snow restaurant, in which not only tables and chairs,
But also ware - ice. Similar locks build now on, less,
All Finland.
The prices.
Certainly, on New Year's holidays to count on cheapness not
It is necessary. But the geographical affinity of Finland allows to save
On flight. Tourist permits where moving by train is provided,
More cheaply almost twice. Still an inexpensive variant: by train to
Vyborg, further to vacation spot - by the bus. Week round with
Flight costs from 800 dollars in four-stars hotel, if
To reach by train permit cost begins from 500
Dollars in the same hotel. As a rule, in permit cost it is switched on
New Year's supper and posleprazdnichnyj a late breakfast.
Residing at cottages is very extended in Finland. Variants
Here set: cottages can be calculated on 2-15 the person, with
Sauna and without, with a food at restaurant of tourist settlement or
The lonely house in wood where you care of yourselves. The cottage can
To be big and comfortable at level of 5 stars, and can be
Modest, completed only the most necessary, for this reason
To speak about average cost it is senseless. For example, on a resort
Vuokatinmaa a four-stars cottage (a bedroom, a drawing room with a fireplace,
Sauna, kitchen, a shower, a toilet, a verandah, the second floor - sleeping
Mezzanines), calculated on 2-5 persons, located directly at
Mountain-skiing slope, there are 3200 dollars for a week, and same
Cottage in 2 kilometres from slopes - 2150 dollars.
Every possible entertainments are not free also. On the average trips on
Deer, horses, dogs, snowmobile stand from 10 to 25 dollars for
3 hours. Hire of skis from 5 to 15 dollars for 3 hours. Training in
To mountain-skiing school there are 40 dollars 2,5 hours. If to buy
