Auld Lang Syne

Celebrate the New Year in the village of Hetta

Perhaps the Northern Lights will mark the occasion with a spectacular display

ANOTHER YEAR BEGINS and it's a time of celebration, renewal and excited expectation. So why not celebrate it deep inside the Arctic Circle, where the magic of Father Christmas's special season still holds sway? After celebrating the arrival ofthe New Year in style, you will be able to venture out into the majestic snowscapes to enjoy a wide range of snow activities before setting out in search of the grand old man himself. Your New Year short break will be a wonderful opportunity to spend quality family time together in the exhilarating surrounds of this winter wonderland.
Celebrating the New Year will be just part of your short break. There is so much more included. From a Husky Experience to a Search for Santa, from a Snowmobile Adventure to a New Year Celebration, your three-night break is filled with magical experiences. Here is a typical itinerary.
