• Rovaniemi - Winter, summer, midnight or evening, the joy of sauna bathing is a totally delightful event.

Sauna bathing has become such a deeply ingrained Finnish tradition that not even the difficult circumstances have been able to interrupt or alter it. It is a part of Finnish culture, customs and social pattern, passed inevitably from one generation to the next.

The sauna effect is created by making the body hot throughout, almost like simulation a fever. This high temperature, coupled with the tranquil view and the later breathing of the stimulation lake air creates the benevolent effect always associated with sauna.

The greatest time to see the Northern Lights is between end of October and middle of March. You need fair skies, pitch black nights and some luck to see the dancing lights in the sky (evening departure ONLY). To make the entire experience extraordinary we will take you a traditional Finnish sauna on an Arctic lake. Let’s make this an adventure of a lifetime!

• Northern Lights - if lucky (end of October - middle of March. 5pm/EVENING DEPARTURES ONLY!)

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think about traditional Finnish adventure? Northern lights hunting, Finnish sauna & Ice swimming, or traditional Lappish dinner in a cozy wooden cottage away from the city buzz? Correct! On this tour you will get all of the above and even a little more!

Let the heat purify your body as the mellow wintery magic of Lapland purifies your soul. Let go of the stress and enjoy the presence of your loved ones. While we do our best to prepare you for adventure in the wilderness, it’s up to you decide how you want to spend your time. The classic Nordic way is to spend 10-15 minutes in the sauna and then jump into ice cold water, or even a big pile of crystal white snow! A cold plunge after a steamy session increases your blood flow, relieves pressure and boosts up your endorphin levels!

After this unique Finnish spa experience, it’s time to get back to our little cozy wooden cottage to enjoy Blazed salmon dinner by a fireplace.
