Primitif Aventure

Based in the heart of Finnish Lapland, Primitif Aventure invites travellers to experience the Arctic in an authentic, respectful, and immersive way. This family-run camp is driven by a deep passion for wilderness, polar environments, and life close to nature, shared with visitors through carefully designed outdoor experiences.

Primitif Aventure offers multi-day expeditions and short activities focused on autonomy, safety, and connection with the environment. From wilderness raids to nature discovery experiences, each outing is guided by experienced, French-speaking professionals with strong backgrounds in outdoor leadership and naturalist interpretation. Wildlife, Arctic ecosystems, and local traditions are at the heart of every activity.

The camp is located 300 km north of the Arctic Circle, 5 minutes from Ivalo and 13 km from Ivalo Airport. It sits between major natural areas such as Urho Kekkonen National Park, Lemmenjoki National Park, and the Kevo Strict Nature Reserve, ideal for exploring vast, untouched landscapes. In winter, polar nights and northern lights define the atmosphere, while summer brings the midnight sun, canoeing, hiking, and berry picking around Lake Inari.

Primitif Aventure promotes slow travel and low-impact tourism, encouraging eco-friendly transport with dedicated discounts. Guests are welcomed into a warm, family environment, alongside rare Taïmyr dogs and through partnerships with local Lapland actors.
