Activity Holidays in Rovaniemi

Overview

Perched on the edge of the Arctic Circle and the ‘official’ home of Santa Claus, Rovaniemi is one of Lapland’s largest towns, and certainly one a regular attraction for tourists looking to get a taste of the stunning wilderness that the northern Finnish region has to offer.

It’s the absolutely ideal destination for anyone on the hunt for Christmas holidays in Lapland, with Christmas activities, grottoes and, of course, a thick blanket of snow creating real festive magic for the kids.

There’s also magic in abundance for the adults in the form of the ethereal Northern Lights. Rovaniemi’s position near the arctic circle makes it great for northern lights holidays in Finland, and with glass-roofed cabins as accommodation, you can drink in this bucket list travel experience from the comfort of your own warm bed.

It’s also worth remembering that although Rovaniemi might feel like a proper town, it is situated in one of Europe’s last true wildernesses. Explore the pine forests and fells by snowmobile, husky safari and reindeer, for a family holiday in Lapland that will live long in the memory.
