Why Choose Lumi?
Does your ideal vacation include skiing fresh corduroy beneath snow-capped peaks? Someone to wax your skis for you? A hotel close to the trail with a relaxing sauna? Raising a cold beer with friends to celebrate the day? You have come to the right place. Take advantage of our expertise in cross-country skiing and professional travel design. We take care of the details and logistics so you can relax and enjoy your vacation.
Small Group Sizes
Our trips are popular for couples, families, groups of friends and ski clubs. We typically have up to 20 guests, which allows for more intimate experience and greater opportunity to connect to the destination.
Every Lumi trip has opportunities to learn about a region’s food, history and culture - sometimes at the same time. We believe culture and cuisine are intertwined so we ensure guests experience intimate cooking classes and meals at historic local restaurants, as well as side adventures to important cultural landmarks and other activities to make your vacation even more fulfilling.
Our local trip leaders are friendly, outgoing and always interested in sharing their knowledge. They are skiing pros who speak the local languages and share their personal connection to the region, helping make each trip one-of-a-kind.
Active For Everyone
Lumi’s trips are accessible for all levels of fitness. Trails on each trip are groomed for both classic and skate techniques. Typical daily outings range from 5 km to 25 km depending on your skills and interests. Many trail networks feature out-and-back loops so you can choose your own adventure with the help of Lumi’s trip leaders, ensuring you get the most out of your day on the trails.
Not interested in skiing? Winter walking paths and optional cultural activities allow non-skiers to experience the best of each destination we visit.
Self-Guided & Custom Group Trips
Lumi offers self-guided and custom group trips many of the same destinations our group trips visit, as well as other locations across Europe. Our self-guided and custom trips are popular for families, groups of friends and ski clubs who want to offer a special opportunity for their members to experience skiing abroad.
Support Non-Profits, NNF, and Events
We support the National Nordic Foundation (NNF) which provides training, finances, and opportunities for Nordic athletes in the United States. Notably, Lumi’s partnership with the NNF helped provide a financial platform to continue the Trail to Gold Fellowship (T2G), where talented US women coaches with World Cup coaching experience work towards correcting a gender inequity in coaching at the top-level of the sport. We helped fund T2G Fellowships by donating a portion of each traveler’s entrée for their trips to the 2023 Nordic World Championships in Planica, Slovenia. Our partnership with NNF is representative of the strong sense of continuity and camaraderie that courses through all of the US ski community, and one made possible by a unique perspective in our community.
