Into the Arctic Wild Our adventure took us to Finland’s far north, where we were greeted by breathtaking northern lights before arriving in Inari. The mission? Moose hunting in the vast Arctic wilderness, guided by Pekka and his amazing Karelian bear dog, Onni. With a little help of modern satellite tracking, we explored the untouched terrain while honoring ethical hunting traditions. The journey was no walk in the park—dense forests, marshy grounds, and hard-to-spot moose pushed us to our limits. But the effort was worth it for the incredible views, the thrill of the chase, and the evenings spent unwinding in true Finnish style: a blazing sauna, a plunge into the icy lake, and feasts of local specialties like smoked trout and capercaillie. On the final day, with a change in tactics, Onni’s skillful tracking brought us close to a moose. But the Arctic reminded us of its power—nature doesn’t give in easily! This experience was more than a hunt; it was a test of resilience, respect for wildlife, and a deep dive into Lapland’s beauty. #ArcticAdventure #MooseHunting #LaplandWildlife #RespectNature #OnceInALifetime Read the entire article from here >

Into the heart of Finnish wilderness This January we took on Finland’s legendary "Top Jakt" – a thrilling hunt for black grouse and capercaillie in the frozen expanse of the Arctic. Skiing off-piste through deep snow and -24°C temperatures, we navigated endless forests and icy bogs, armed with precision gear and plenty of determination. Evenings brought well-earned relaxation with traditional Finnish saunas, hearty meals of local delicacies, like zander fillets and mushroom soup, shared around cozy hunting shelters. After three intense days, we finally secured a black grouse, with a spectacular capercaillie encounter to cap off the adventure. It’s more than a hunt – The combination of physical endurance, respect for nature, and the warmth of Finnish hospitality makes this a truly unforgettable adventure. #LaplandAdventure #TopJakt #WildlifeExperience #ArcticHunting Read the entire article from here >
