Pallas Kite Week, Finland

Lapland Feb 18-25/2024

Travel description

PALLAS KITE WEEK international edition: OPEN for Registration !

(18-25 February)

Join us for the highly anticipated 10th edition of the Pallas Kite Week! This extraordinary event will take place at the renowned Pallas Hotel, which will open its doors one week in advance exclusively for this occasion. We extend a warm invitation to snowkite beginners, as lessons will be available to kickstart your thrilling journey. The Pallas Kite Week is not a kite competition; it’s a week filled with intense snowkiting, exhilaration, and endless fun. Prepare to be captivated by the unique atmosphere created by passionate kiters from around the globe. Your only concern will be selecting the perfect kite size to match the conditions and maximize your enjoyment.

In addition to the remarkable Pallas Kite Week experience, we are delighted to offer two editions tailored to different audiences. The first edition is a cherished event among Lapland locals, with approximately 90% of guests hailing from Finland and Sweden. Due to its popularity, tickets for this edition typically sell out within a matter of days. However, the second edition has been exclusively crafted for Snowkite Sensation, attracting kite enthusiasts from all corners of Europe. This edition promises a diverse and vibrant community of snowkiters, creating a truly international gathering. Join us and be part of this thrilling snowkiting celebration in the heart of the enchanting Finnish Lapland.

After an exhilarating day of kiting, gather with fellow kiters to share stories and experiences. Immerse yourself in a variety of engaging activities, including mountain safety lessons, rejuvenating stretching sessions, the thrilling Pallas Gnar photo competition, and cozy evenings in nearby huts. The overall ambiance is indescribable – it’s an atmosphere that must be experienced firsthand. And what better way to unwind than indulging in the soothing heat of a traditional Scandinavian sauna or luxuriating in the outdoor hot tub, melting away any fatigue and leaving you feeling completely rejuvenated.

Embark on a remarkable snowkiting adventure in the enchanting Finnish Lapland, where frozen lakes and gentle mountains await. Experience the raw beauty of the wilderness as you conquer exotic treks and embrace the thrill of the untouched surroundings. Nature’s stunning masterpiece, the captivating Northern Lights, may grace you with its awe-inspiring presence, rewarding your physical efforts with a breathtaking light show. In the evenings, Pallas becomes the prime location for Northern Lights hunting. With minimal light pollution and optimal viewing conditions, your chances of witnessing this natural wonder are remarkably high.

If the scheduled dates of the event do not align with your availability, we have the flexibility to customize the experience for you and your group in March or April in Lapland Levi ski resort close to the Pallas hotel. Let us know your preferred dates, and we will create a tailored snowkiting adventure that perfectly suits your needs.

Beginners welcome

In the stunning Finnish Lapland, Pallas stands out among the many mountains for its unique features. Firstly, the valleys situated above the tree line offer an extraordinary advantage – you can smoothly glide from one hill to another without the need to land your kite. With favorable winds, you can effortlessly tour through 9 hills in one exhilarating session.

Secondly, Pallas is nestled within the magnificent Pallas-Ylläs National Park. This means that the mountains remain untouched and open for kiters to explore. Picture this: no roads, no rocks, no buildings obstructing the breathtaking scenery. It’s just you, your kite, and the vast wilderness. Keep an eye out for the occasional visit from a curious reindeer, adding an extra touch of enchantment to your experience. At the Pallas hotel you will be able to start kiting straight from the hotel, how about that ?!

Accommodations

In case of low wind conditions

Unfortunately, as you would know if you kitesurf often, the wind even in perfect and renown kiting spots doesn’t always pan-out. So we at Snowkite Sensation make sure that there is plenty for you to do in this unfortunate scenario.

Other winter sports: As always skiing is always an option in our snowkite travel collection. Fat bikes are available to rent at the hotel. The electric powered fat bikes are a fun activity if you wish to wander across the natural park.

Discover the region

Gastronomy: Scrumptious cuisine often serves as the centerpiece to an unforgettable journey. The Pallas offers a delightful culinary experience, showcasing the flavors of the region. The hotel’s restaurant serves a range of delectable dishes, from traditional Finnish delicacies to international favorites, all prepared with the finest local ingredients.

In addition why not try the famous ice restaurant. Located within the Arctic Snowhotel, the ice restaurant offers a truly extraordinary setting for dining. Guests can savor a gourmet meal surrounded by stunning ice sculptures and intricate ice art, creating an atmosphere unlike any other. The menu features a selection of carefully crafted dishes that showcase the creativity and skill of the chefs, making it a truly unforgettable dining experience in the heart of Lapland.

Visiting and relaxing: Your package includes one entry per person to the Arctic Sauna World. The venue has four different saunas, each with a unique atmosphere and ambiance. After your snowkiting sessions, make way for a little relaxation, meditation and mental and physical cleansing.

After dinner, if you have a little more energy left in you, you can head out through the forest up to the mountains where there is absolutely zero light pollution. With some luck you will have the privilege to experience some of the most amazing Northern lights (aurora borealis). The walk in the dark and quiet wilderness is an experience in itself! Make sure you don’t miss the final stop in a hut to drink some local spirits. Refusing is not an option. On another note, the Father Christmas village is a 2h drive from the hotel, a fun activity if you are planning to travel with young kids.
