For some, the huskies are the reason to come to Hetta. For others it is the dogs plus the history, culture and geography of the area. This is far more than a standard winter resort, offering all the usual Arctic outdoor sports far from night-lights, bars and traffic.

  • Huskies combined with skiing, snowmobiling and ice-fishing
  • Hundreds of km of cross-country tracks and a family ski centre
  • Walkable village with Sami nature centre and reindeer farms
  • Money-saving example packages, all including a farm visit

Multi-activity holidays in Hetta

This is one of the purest places in Europe, surrounded by an ancient but living culture close to the land. Expect hundreds of kilometres of maintained cross-country ski tracks, a family-friendly downhill ski centre, a snow castle, ice-fishing and snowmobiles to test.

A wonderful family resort

Finns see Hetta as a wonderful family resort, a village where many still leave front doors unlocked. Everything is within walking distance of the downtown hotels, including the Sami nature centre, the downhill ski centre and reindeer farms. Day visits into Sweden or Norway are easy, as are trips to the silver gallery and Sami museum in Kautokeino.

Example packages

Build your own itinerary, or take one of our example packages, which cost less than booking everything yourself and capture the highlights across various timeframes. Every package includes at least a visit to the husky farm. It would be a shame to come all this way and not meet the dogs.
