to be completed
In addition to the regular program with meals and coffee breaks (and a special school dinner), we plan an excursion offering on Sunday to Inari.
In addition, we will have several smaller events:
- A welcome reception on Tuesday evening in the Aurora hut close-by
- The possibility to go to an authentic smoke sauna (in small groups on some evenings, sign-up available soon)
- HIPscape room on some evenings
- Semi-spontaneous hikes on some evenings, to be clarified soon
- Details are to be added later, but the venue is in the direct vicinity of the UKK National Park and there is reindeer farming and a rich goldwashing history in the area.
Ideas for spare-time activities (we may have some of these as semi-spontaneous hikes with some meeting point/info):

Another nice evening / spare time activity (self paid), for those interested, would be biking / e-biking.
