Lapland: Spirit of Speed

Spirit of Speed Arctic

Spirit of Speed Arctic is a highly exclusive, race-inspired ice driving experience built for those who want to explore the absolute limits of vehicle control. Inspired by professional rally sport, it features air- and water-cooled 911-based models, all specially re-engineered for extreme winter conditions and fitted with authentic World Rally Championship tires. This is not standard winter driving training — it is a fully immersive performance experience that goes far beyond conventional programs.

Participants are introduced to a completely private Arctic driving environment in Finnish Lapland, where frozen lakes, marshland, and purpose-built rally tracks form a unique 3 km² playground. With no other groups on site, every session is fully dedicated to individual progression. One instructor per car ensures a highly personal approach, with training adapted to all levels — from first-time ice drivers to advanced enthusiasts pushing for maximum speed.

The program is available in multiple formats, including Arctic Control (focused on precision and technique) and Arctic Race (introducing timed rally stages, competition, and pace notes). Across 2 to 3 days, drivers experience long sessions on ice, night driving, and full rally-style stages, all supported by advanced communication and optional data systems.

Basecamp is set at the exclusive Kide Lodges in Ylläs, offering premium Nordic comfort with sauna facilities and alpine views, just 30 minutes from the airport.
