Trapper Safari By Snowmobile

Description
This is not your average snowmobile safari!
Follow a professional fisherman and trapper on his daily routine, checking fishing nets and traps for willow grouse. A wild forest bird that some people call “forest chicken”.
Afterwards I will prepare a warm meal for you using whatever we catch that day. I bet you have never tasted food that is so fresh and healthy!*
This experience is totally unique and I do not know anybody else in northern Europe that offers this.
*Subject to extra cost
Detailed Itinerary:
Part 1: Checking Traps
You will be seated in a 6-person sled and towed by a snowmobile.
The tracks where I set my nets and traps are remote and not near any snowmobile roads or tracks used by other snowmobile tourism companies. So you will get a real taste of quiet nature and true wilderness.
On our way to the camp, we will check and harvest my fishing nets and willow grouse traps.
When you know how to read animal tracks, the forest has many stories to tell, and kids usually love this part.
If you are curious, you can definitely learn a lot about nature, animals, and harvesting food from the land. But you are also welcome to just lean back and enjoy the ride.

Part 2: Break
After about 1 hour of driving, we will arrive at my camp in the wilderness.
Accompanied by a hot drink, you can enjoy the crackling sounds and dancing flames of the wood stove. Within 20 minutes the tent is usually so warm that you can sit there in a T-shirt.
