Snowmobiling Levi

Can you hire snow mobiles for the day without a guide even if you have never driven one before?





I understand you need a driving Licence to do this.

Yes you can hire snowmobiles locally.



Prehesafarit in Levi which is situated by the levi market store hire them out from 2hrs or for the day.



Costs vary from 70 euro-300 euro depending on length of time and type of snowmobile.



Rememeber to take your driving licence with you.

Great, thanks Bluny ! Very excited. Is it worth taking an Aurora safari , or hire snow mobiles ourselves and head away from the light pollution?




|||



Aurora snowmobiles safari are great,but if you want to hire them for longer and are brave enough its got to be more fun if you are in a group hiring them out yourselfs.We have only ever done the safaris with companys as we have 2 children and I was not brave enough to hire them out as a family.



Ignore the safaris that advertise as nighttime snowmobiling to see the northern lights as we have only ever seen them walking out at the back of our cabins on a clear night.

How many people can you fit on a snow mobile?




|||



It depends but we have always had 2 adults and children travel in pods behind.Some pods are heated and some not.




|||



I was wondering because I cant drive,only my OH can so there would be 4 of us.



My OH has changed his mind (again!) and he wants to come now,I think its cos I told him I was going on my own lol



So im doing as much research as poss, on everything before we look at booking,so he doesnt change his mind again!




|||



Yes dont blame you.Check out all the companys for prices as there is a big price difference between companys again this year.




|||



I think it is more fun to head out on your own-driving is not difficult-like Bluny said i would forget the northern light trip,as there is no better place to see them!



Just look up on a clear night! we saw them loads last year!




|||



Thanks guys! Will definately hire the snowmobiles for the day and go our own expedition with the reindeer farm and (hopefully) northern lights. Fingers crossed for some clear nights.





I cant believe how much there is to do, i doubt i will get much skiing done at this rate!





Staying at Levi Log cabins, in the 8-10 person cabin 13-20jan





Will post lots of photos on my return

Have fun.The cabins are great we stayed in those last year.
