Snowkite in Finnish Lapland
Discover one of the most stunning snowkite areas in the world! Right in the middle of a huge national park, we stay in a phenomenal hotel and kite on endless white plains.
Snowkiting is super accessible and even easier to learn than kitesurfing. No waterstart, no waves — just you, your kite and the snow. Thanks to the flat terrain, steady wind and soft snow, you’ll often master the basics within a few hours. And in the evening? There’s a good chance the magical Northern Lights will dance above your head. ✨

Snowkite
Pallas is one of the most unique snowkite areas in the world. Located in the heart of the Pallas–Yllästunturi National Park, you’ll find endless white plains, soft powder snow, and rolling hills that create perfect natural playgrounds.
What makes Pallas so special? The variety! From flat terrain where beginners can safely ride their first meters to challenging slopes and mountain faces for the experienced rider. Add the steady Lapland wind and the chance to see the Northern Lights, and you’ve got a snowkite experience like nowhere else.
Weather & Wind
In March, Pallas is a true paradise for snowkiters. The area benefits from the steady Lapland winds that sweep freely over the vast plains and fells of the Pallas–Yllästunturi National Park.
The conditions are ideal: stable wind, plenty of space, and a thick layer of powder snow that often lasts well into spring. Temperatures usually range between -5°C and -15°C, with chances of bright sunny days — and of course the magical Northern Lights.
Important to know: wind forecasts are often inaccurate here because of the unique mountain microclimate. Thanks to our local snowkite guides, we know exactly where to find the right wind each day — so you’re always guaranteed perfect sessions.

Fantastic kite trips with Kiteactive! I’ve been on two trips now (Tarifa and Rhodes). Awesome kite sessions with great people on the most beautiful beaches! Enthusiastic and relaxed organization. Highly recommended!
Seppe Veuskens
Another fantastic holiday with a great group! I’m already looking forward to my next holiday with Kiteactive.
Ellis Smulders
We went again! This time the trip took us to Rhodes in May 2025! What a fantastic week, full of wind, kite adventures, fun, and delicious food. Highly recommended with this top team! And now back home enjoying the most fantastic photos and videos from Edwin Robert. I want to go back!!
After the fantastic weekend in September 2023, we’re going again in May 2024!
We had such a great time! What a fantastic team! A jack of all trades, a great crew, good kite sessions, delicious food, fun, kite, sleep, eat and repeat, thanks everyone!!!
What a fantastic Wadden weekend! Super crew, delicious food, well-organized, nothing was lacking. Sailing, kiting, nature, fun! All in one. And great fellow pirates!

Great people, awesome vibes, and incredible kiting in Brazil! 🇧🇷
Thanks to KiteActive for showing us the best spots! Felix, you nailed it again! 😎
Bas Mouton
I have been with them on several trips to Brazil… and they rock. Great community, great organization and wonderful staff. Highly recommended.

First time travelling with KiteActive to Sicily. I’ve had a really great time. Even if i can kite already and do some tricks here and there, the instructors gave some nice tips and newer tricks to practice on. The kitespots were spot on!
On no-wind days there was always something organized, wakeboarding behind the boat, another boat trip and snorkeling, going to an old city, etcetera, and you also have the freedom to explore at your own pace.
You’re also not alone, staying with an collected group at the place which makes it more pleasant!
Thanks again KiteActive for the amazing stay!!
Simon Deckers
Just back from the Wadden Weekend Kite Trip with KiteActive, and wow, what an awesome weekend! 🌊🪁
Everything was super well arranged, the food was absolutely amazing, and the vibes were super chill. We had great wind conditions, and the progression sessions were epic.
What really stood out was how much time the guys took to explain things and help us push our kiting skills further. You could really feel they wanted to see everyone progress, and that made it even more fun and motivating.
Great people, great vibes, good food, good wind, can’t ask for more. Already looking forward to the next one!
Florien Oost
Amazing! Great people, chill vibe and the best instructors 🫶

Yallah habibi, what an epic week this was! Just got back from Egypt after my second kite holiday with KiteActive — and once again, absolutely worth repeating!
The spot is amazing: you can walk straight from your hotel room onto the (kite) beach. The collaboration with Kitelagoon Hurghada was top-notch — we were fully taken care of (pumping kites, launching and landing, chill tunes on the beach, warm tea during breaks). Everything was perfectly arranged by KiteActive as well — from a group chat and quick replies to any questions, to thinking along about boardbags and capturing awesome (action) shots!
We also had such a fun group (which of course KiteActive can’t fully control), but it made the week even better. On the — luckily only two — windless days, we went wakeboarding, snorkeling, and just enjoyed the resort to the fullest. Under the always cheerful (and super experienced) supervision of Roderick, this week was not only super fun but also incredibly educational — what a legend he is!
Beginner or advanced: I recommend going on a trip with KiteActive to everyone — you won’t regret it 🙂 Let’s go!
Carola van Hof
Top locations — I’ve joined trips to Brazil and Rhodes! Everything was super well organized, with a chilled vibe, awesome people, and relaxed but spot-on coaching. You get tips & tricks for both beginners and independent riders. And there’s even a photographer joining to capture your progress with epic (drone) shots. Highly recommended!
Just got back from Sicily too — such an incredible spot. And that Italian food from our own chef… buonissimo!!
The Journey
Go with the flow.
As a snowkiter, you live by the wind and the snow. That’s exactly how it goes during our Pallas Snowkite Adventure.
You go with the flow. And with us, the flow is… The Wind!
In Pallas it’s about more than just kiting: you become part of a tight snowkite community.
Together with a group of like-minded riders at your level, we head out every day. Our
local snowkite guides know the area inside out and are key to our success.
Pallas has a microclimate, which means wind apps like Windfinder are often unreliable. That’s why we check conditions every day and
choose the best spot together — so we’re always in the right place with the right wind.
We also focus on progression and coaching to help your skills grow every single day.
Every evening we make plans together for the next day. After a full day in the snow we enjoy good food,
share stories, do video analysis and give tips to help you improve.
No wind? No problem! Pallas is located in the middle of a national park and offers endless possibilities:
cross-country skiing, hiking, snowshoeing or simply relaxing in the sauna. And with a bit of luck
the magical Northern Lights will light up the sky.
Pallas Snowkite Adventure = progression, adventure and good vibes on another level.
Team
Meet our coaches and instructors: all experienced, super enthusiastic, and driven to help you progress. With our proven teaching method, we guarantee your level will get a serious boost — whether you’re a beginner or have been kiting for years.

Questions?
Do you have a question? We’ve selected a few frequently asked questions for you.
Can I join later or leave earlier?
No problem, but you will have to take the ferry to or from Terschelling/Vlieland yourself to get there!
Can I also join if I’m not kitesurfing?
Absolutely! A few years ago, we launched Kijkactive. This weekend is a fantastic experience for everyone!
Am I insured?
No idea – this is something you need to check for yourself. What’s important is to be aware that you’re booking a highly risky trip. KiteActive does its best to make the journey as safe as possible, but you participate entirely at your own risk!
