Ruka Ski Chalets

When we arrived at the Check-in, we had to wait about 1 hour. The room was very clean with a balcony, although it was covered in snow. There was a wifi code for every single room. The room where you put your ski equipment was also great. The beds were comfy and there were no stains. The ski equipment had many types of sizes, which let people in different size also ski with no problem. It would take a while to get to the pistes (Ski hills). You could take the bus, or the lifts, which would take a while, but you can enjoy the nice view. There were many hills to go down from, all of them were fun, except the time when i accidentally fell off the lifts to get you up on the hill to ski, I was scared a bit. And my skis would keep falling out, luckily a trainer came down the hill and saw me, and helped me get them back on. The stores nearby were amazing, on the first evening, i went to a pizza restaurant and the pizza was amazing. There were also stores that sold magnets (I love magnets) of Ruka. There were also tours to places in Ruka. I went to 2 of them, Snowmobile riding, and watching the Reindeers. The snowmobile riding happened at night to see the Northern Lights, which was really cool. In the Reindeer watching, you could feed them, ride them, and there was also a hut that we went in, and got drinks, probably cranberry but it was yummy. there was a campfire in the middle, and we could roast marshmallows and eat them. After that, we went into another hut that had more things, there was hot chocolate, and food like cookies, it was like a bakery, we sat down and there was also sugar cubes. I love sugar cubes. They also gave out reindeer meat, it was like dry. It is really safe to walk out at night too. The airport is only about 26 minutes so we did not have to rush at night. Our bus stop was just to the right of the Ski Chalet, really close. The scenery is also very pretty, so if you have a camera, best to bring it here.
