The outing starts with a calm briefing and kit-up, then builds from steady practice laps into a full hour on the ice, or a longer 2.5 hour session if you want more time. Hotel pickup and drop-off sit within 10 kilometres of the city centre, and the longer option finishes with local food and drinks by the campfire. 🕐 Key Details Duration: About 4 hours for the one hour track session, or about 5 hours on the longer 2.5 hour option Track time: 1 hour including practice, or 2.5 hours on the longer session Minimum age: 18 Group size: From 1 person Pickup: Included within 10 km of Rovaniemi city centre Weather: Needs a sound ice surface 🛠️ What to Expect After the run out from town, you pull on a helmet, balaclava and gloves and walk around the car so the roll cage, racing seats and spiked tyres make sense before you leave the start. The instructor covers braking, cornering, traction and how you talk to each other, then the first laps stay calm: straight line braking, turning in, feeding the throttle, and catching a basic slide. Feedback comes from the passenger seat or over the radio, and the aim is a soft, early style that works better on ice than a heavy right foot. Once those laps feel natural you build the pace across the rest of your track time. The one hour session includes this practice inside the hour. On the longer option you stay out for 2.5 hours, which gives you room to repeat corners and settle into the slide, then sit by the fire for local food and drinks. When you know the circuit you can also take some laps on your own, still on the private ice and still with the team on hand at the side of the track. 📍 Location The circuit sits on private ice in the countryside around Rovaniemi, well away from public roads and town traffic. You reach it with us from the city, so you do not need to find the track yourself or drive there in your own car. Pickup and drop-off run within 10 kilometres of Rovaniemi city centre. Be ready five minutes before the time we send you, and share your hotel or cabin address so we can plan the run out to the ice. 📝 Prerequisites Drivers need to be at least 18, and you will sign a liability release form before you get into the car. No previous rally or ice driving experience is required. We treat this as a first session and keep the early laps at a pace you… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Hotel pickup and drop-off within 10 kilometres of Rovaniemi city centre Professional instructor and a full safety briefing on the ice Helmet, balaclava and gloves for the session Use of a rally-prepared BMW 325 with roll cage, racing seats and spiked tyres One hour of track time including practice, or 2.5 hours on the longer option Private ice-track destination Local food and drinks by the campfire on the longer session ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point if your stay is more than 10 kilometres from Rovaniemi city centre Travel to Rovaniemi itself Your own warm layers, hat and winter boots under the kit we give you in the car Personal travel or health insurance Personal liability for damage, as set out on the session you choose ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### Do I need rally or ice driving experience? You do not need any rally background to take the wheel. We start beside the track with a calm briefing, fit your helmet and balaclava, and walk through how the car behaves on ice before you leave the start. Your instructor stays with you, first from the passenger seat or by radio, and we keep the opening laps slow so you can feel the grip. Once those first laps feel natural, we build the pace together. The aim is a soft, early style of driving rather than a heavy right foot, and you will have time to practise braking, turning in, and catching a slide before you push on. ### How fit do I need to be? This is a driving session rather than a long hike, so you do not need a high level of fitness. You should be comfortable sitting in a rally seat with a harness, turning the wheel for an hour or more, and spending time outdoors between laps in Finnish winter weather. If you get cold easily, dress in warm layers you can add or remove, and wear proper winter boots for the walk from the van to the car. We can pause between stints so you can warm your hands and take a breath before the next run. ### What is the minimum age? Drivers need to be at least 18. That is a hard limit on this experience, so we cannot put a younger guest behind the wheel even if they have driven on the road at home. Please come only as adults who will actually drive. A shared session for several drivers on the same ice is set up for three to six people, rather than this one driver outing. ### What should I wear and bring? Wear warm layers you already own, a hat that fits under a helmet, and winter boots with a decent sole. We give you a helmet, a balaclava and gloves for the time you are in the car, so you do not need to pack motorsport kit of your own. Leave jewellery and loose scarves in your bag, and bring sunglasses or clear glasses if you wear them for driving. A small dry bag for your phone is useful. Have your hotel or cabin address ready so we can plan pickup. ### What are the safety and liability rules? Every car has a roll cage, special seats and spiked rally tyres, and you wear a helmet and balaclava for the session. Before you drive you will sign a liability release form. Your instructor covers braking, cornering and how we talk to each other on the ice, and the first laps stay at a pace you can follow. Personal liability applies, and the figure differs between the one hour options. We will confirm which applies to the session you choose before you get on the ice. Minor damage is looked at case by case. ### How long is the experience, and what options can I choose? The one hour track session usually fills about four hours door to door, including pickup, a briefing of around 20 minutes, and the drive back. That hour on the ice includes your practice laps, so you are not spending the whole time at full pace from the first corner. If you want more time behind the wheel, choose the longer option. That one gives you 2.5 hours of track time, a briefing of around 20 to 30 minutes, and a total outing of about five hours, with local food and drinks by the campfire at the end. ### What happens if the weather is poor? The session needs a sound ice surface, so we watch the temperature and the state of the track before we set out. Soft ice, heavy snowfall or a sudden thaw can mean we have to move your time or stop the day for safety. If we cannot run, we will be in touch as early as we can with the next step. Please treat this as a winter activity that depends on the lake staying hard enough for cars, not as an indoor session that runs in any weather. ### What if I feel nervous about driving on ice? Most guests feel a little tight in the shoulders on the first lap, and that is normal. We start with straight line braking and slow corners so you can feel how the car settles, and your instructor can talk you through each input from the passenger seat or over the radio. You are not expected to drive at a competition pace. The goal is control and a bit of slide you chose, not a scare. Tell us if you want to stay slower for longer, and we will keep the session at that pace until you are ready to add speed. ### Where do you pick me up? Pickup and drop-off are included if your hotel or cabin sits within 10 kilometres of Rovaniemi city centre. Share the address in advance, and please be ready five minutes before the time we send you so the run out to the track stays on schedule. Stays outside that radius are not part of this outing. If you are coming from further out, you will need to make your own way to a pickup we can reach, or travel into Rovaniemi first. We pin the activity to the city rather than to our office street, because we come to you. ### Is food included, and can I drive some laps on my own? Local food and drinks by the campfire are included on the longer 2.5 hour track session. The one hour options are about the briefing and the driving, so plan a meal before or after if you choose those. Once you have learned the circuit with your instructor, you can drive some laps on your own. That comes after the coached practice, not at the very start, so you already know the braking points and how the car talks to you on the ice. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/ralliauto-2-2-scaled.jpeg - **Gallery image count**: 6 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
