InPallas, Lapland
The name says it all at the Snowy Wilderness Lodge. The property is surrounded by a winter wonderland of forest and fields.
The Snowy Wilderness Lodge is tucked away in the heart of the Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park, surrounded by mile after mile of pine forests and hills.
Log fires set the scene, so the hotel is warm and cosy inside. The rooms, meanwhile, are basic with modern décor and come with great views over the snowy countryside.
This hotel comes with a SnowClub, where children can get involved with entertainment and activities. You can join the SnowClub entertainment team and our mascot Captain T for indoor and outdoor activities. Like snowdog-building and tobogganing, snowgolf and marshmallow toasting. There's lots of entertainment, too, like pantomimes and festive-themed parties.
Holidays here come with our Hotel rep and 24/7 Online service. This means that an English-speaking TUI rep will visit your hotel during your stay, and info and support are available 24/7 via the TUI app.
You'll find the details of your itinerary below - just remember that all itineraries are subject to minor changes. You can find your final itinerary on the TUI Lapland app two days before you're due to go - just search for TUI Lapland in the App Store or Google Play to download it. If you'd like to book additional experiences, we'd recommend booking these with us - it's just so we can make sure they fit around the included activities such as your meeting with Santa, taster sessions and festive finale.
Once you’ve touched down in Kittila, Santa’s elves will be hand to take you to your hotel in Pallas. There’s a stop en route to pick up your thermal clothing, then once you’ve reached your hotel there’s some free time to get a feel for your surroundings. You can grab a toboggan and make a bee-line for the snow, or take a walk through the snow-topped countryside.
It’s all about Lappish culture today, with a short husky ride through the snow. Or, you can opt for a snowmobiling session instead. Then you’ll get to see a traditional Arctic Circle crossing ceremony, followed by some free time in the afternoon – you can book an extra TUI experience if you’d like, just make sure you book it before you go so you don’t risk missing out.
It’s all about festive fun today for those staying for three nights, as you’ll try your hand at decorating cookies and making Christmas ornaments. Or you can zoom through the snow on a toboggan ride – just remember you’ll need to hand your thermal clothing back in today. Later, you’ll tuck into a Christmas dinner with all the trimmings and have the chance to meet Santa at your festive finale. Or, if you’re on a four-night stay, you’ll have the entire day at leisure, which means there’s plenty of time to pencil in any extra experiences – head to tui.co.uk/things-to-do and search for Pallas to see your options.
For those staying for three nights, it’s time to head back to the airport today, ready for your flight home. Or, if you’re staying for four nights, it’s your turn for festive fun – you’ll be crafting Christmas ornaments, decorating cookies and later heading out for a toboggan ride. It’s time to hand your thermal clothing back in today and get ready for your festive finale, where you’ll be meeting up with Santa.
For those on a four-night trip, it’s time to head back to the airport, ready for your flight home.
SANTA-CLUSIVE - Breakfast, lunch, dinner and unlimited snacks - sandwiches and cakes SANTA-CLUSIVE - Unlimited draught beer, red and white wine, draught soft drinks, tea, coffee and berry juice - until 23.00
With a selection of Lappish, Nordic and International cuisine, you'll be spoilt for choice.
There’s nothing like the taste of freshly toasted marshmallows on an open camp fire.
Mrs. Claus will pay a visit to the restaurant. Grab a cup of tea as she comes around with cookies for everyone.
