Experience Lapland like a local — all in one unforgettable day!

Warm winter outerwear

Day Program – Ice Fishing & Snowmobile Adventure (10:00 – 14:00)

Start your day with a thrilling snowmobile ride through snowy forests and across a frozen lake as you make your way to a scenic ice fishing spot. Under the guidance of a professional instructor, you’ll enjoy a safe and fun ride — perfect for both first-timers and more experienced drivers.
Children under 15 travel safely in a sled pulled by the guide.

Once you arrive, step onto the ice and try a true Finnish classic: ice fishing. Your guide will help you get set up, show you how to drill your own hole, and share local tips as you settle into the peaceful silence of the winter wilderness, waiting for a bite. If you catch fish, it can be grilled fresh by the fire for an authentic Lapland taste

After your fishing moment by the frozen lake, hop back on the snowmobiles and ride back through the sparkling winter landscapes, completing the adventure with more scenic driving time before returning.

Grilling the catch by the lake (if fish are caught)
