Starting next year, enthusiasts can enjoy the McLaren 570S on ice.

The company’s inaugural ice driving experience, the Pure McLaren Arctic Experience, will take place in January 2017 against the backdrop of northern Finland, 200 miles into the Arctic Circle. According to Pure McLaren, the program “is designed to give guests an extraordinary experience on snow-covered roads and ice track.” A team of professional driving coaches from Pure McLaren are teaming up with renowned winter testing facility Test World to provide one of the most varied ice driving experiences available.

Guests will get behind the wheel of the McLaren 570S Coupe to tackle a variety of track configurations, covering both ice and snow surfaces. When they’re away from the track, they will get to enjoy other winter activities such as a husky safari and snowmobile expedition with the help of local travel provider, Luxury Action.
