Snowmobile safaris

Don the driving overalls, boots, gloves, and helmet, and start an adventure in the rugged landscape of Himos. The wondrous landscape consists of woods, fields, and open lakes that provide perfect opportunities for playful competitions, as well.
We stop on the way to feast on, for example, a delicious salmon roll in the firelight. Breaks can be taken just to admire the scenery, as well. The experience is crowned by a relaxing sauna afterwards
