Highlights
  • Rovaniemi - Enter the polar arctic and enjoy winter in Lapland like a local Finn with a trek into the forest by snowshoes, then the peaceful serenity of ice fishing, and ending by some exciting snowmobile tour beyond the arctic circle.

Stretch your legs and wake your body up with some snowshoeing action traversing through the virgin forests. Then relax and enjoy the peace again after you settle down on your favorite fishing spot on the frozen lake. Don’t know how to ice fish? Worry not, your guide will show step-by-step instructions from drilling your own ice-hole, to using the special tools for thick ice, and of course some techniques for fishing. After that, relax and chill as you try your luck fishing while your guide starts a fire for the BBQ. The trick is silence and patience, or to be chill. You may BBQ your catch of the day, or have one of your guide’s sausage and pretend it’s your fish . After lunch, it is time to explore the Arctic Circle by snowmobiles. Exercise, nature, and excitement. Enjoy winter in Lapland!
