Electric Fatbike Tour to the Amethyst Mine in Luosto Lapland

During summer and autumn, the “Amethyst Mine Tour by Electric Fatbike” is available every Wednesday from June to October, with other days possible by special request. Begin your adventure on a powerful, electrically assisted fatbike as Bliss’ guide leads you to the top of Lampivaara fell, offering breathtaking panoramic views over the Pyhä-Luosto National Park. Once at the summit, you will settle into a wooden shelter to listen to intriguing stories about the region’s geology, the history of amethyst mining, and the unique properties and uses of this fascinating purple gemstone.

After the storytelling session, the tour continues to the digging area where each visitor has the opportunity to excavate their own personal lucky amethyst. The experience concludes with some free time to visit the small on-site “Amethyst Shop,” where the locally mined stones are refined into beautiful jewellery and other creations. This tour combines outdoor adventure, fascinating education, and the hands-on excitement of discovering your own gemstone treasure.
