Pick the Berry by Bike
Pure superfood! Join our hunt for the Laplands best spot for picking the berries. Let’s ride the electric-fatbikes from the city center to the middle of the arctic nature. Berry picking season is on right now!
Season starts usually in the end of July with the true gold of Lapland; cloudberries. Prepare for mosquitos and soft swamp and enjoy the other side, mouthful of tasty berries full of vitamins. On this tour we ride bikes to forest, pick the berries and eat them right away. Fresh and tasty.
Blueberries are ready for picking right after cloudberries. They are easier to pick on the more dry land. Last year we started the season on the second week of August and it last until mid September. Blueberry is known of it’s very high content of anthocyanin. Lingonberry is the last one to get ready for picking, usually in the first two weeks of September. Taste is not as sweet as blueberries, but it’s rather quite tart. Anyway, it contain plentiful organic acids, like vitamins C, A and B. Berry picking season lasts usually until the end of September.
