    Levels

    Beginner
    For those wishing to discover mountain biking, enduro, or "All Mountain" riding, and who have little or no experience mountain biking in the mountains. You want to learn the essential technical skills for both descending and climbing on rideable trails.
    Intermediate
    For occasional mountain bikers. You are comfortable shifting gears and modulating your braking, and you can clear obstacles by unweighting the bike. You will ride on 4x4 tracks that offer a gradual progression, though you may encounter the occasional steep section. Daily elevation gain is approximately 400 to 600 meters.
    Confirmed
    For mountain bikers who are already enthusiasts with some riding experience. You have mastered gear shifting and braking control, and are able to clear obstacles by unweighting the bike, as well as ride up or down short, steep sections. Ideal for riders looking to improve their descending skills on singletrack trails that are rarely very steep but sometimes technical (rocks, roots, etc.) without being exposed, featuring daily elevation gains of 600 to 1,000 meters.
    Advanced
    For mountain bikers who are already skilled descenders and confident in their technique. You are capable of navigating switchbacks, riding along off-camber trails without hesitation, controlling your braking, and clearing small obstacles (such as roots, rocks, and steps). The long, sustained descents—which increase in difficulty throughout the week—are sometimes steep, often technical, and occasionally exposed, though rarely dangerous. Expect daily elevation gains of between 800m and 1,400m.
    Expert
    For experts and experienced, regular riders. You are capable of navigating switchbacks and off-camber trails, controlling your braking, and clearing obstacles such as roots, rocks, and steps. The descents are long and sustained—often steep, technical, and sometimes exposed. You are looking to challenge yourself with daily elevation changes of 1,400 to 2,000 meters.

Management

The digital roadbook is your travel companion.
Digital Roadbook

We will provide comprehensive information on all routes, with clear maps and detailed itineraries. We also have an on-site host at the villas who welcomes the group, remains available throughout the week, and assists with on-site organization. Bicycle and canoe rentals include instructions for equipment use. Forest yoga is a guided activity with a professional yoga instructor.

We work with experienced local guides who are passionate about nature and outdoor activities. They spend their free time hiking and cycling in the area, giving them an intimate knowledge of the surroundings. They are delighted to share their best tips and hidden gems with our visitors. These guides also work year-round as hosts and tour leaders for various types of trips, ensuring an authentic and welcoming experience.

Management

Security

Security in Levi, Lapland, is excellent, allowing visitors to fully enjoy their stay with complete peace of mind. The villas are equipped with individual access codes, enabling guests to move around freely and independently.

The surrounding nature is not only beautiful, but also very safe. There are literally more reindeer than people, and crime levels are virtually non-existent.

During guided excursions, guides—trained in safety procedures—ensure the well-being of travelers throughout the activity. For self-guided outings, visitors are advised to bring their own water bottle to avoid dehydration.

Customers are also expected to have suitable outdoor clothing: good shoes with a non-slip sole and appropriate clothing will provide good protection, especially against the wind at the top of the fjells.

Other supervisors

We have people who drive the car in case it's not the guide. Assistance is also available in the villas via WhatsApp for any questions outside of the activities led by the guides.
