Finnish Lapland Holidays

Visit Finland

Rovaniemi

Finnish Lapland is where Arctic nature and winter adventures take centre stage. Rovaniemi, the region’s capital and home of Santa Claus, is a year-round destination. Visit Santa Claus Village, cross the Arctic Circle, or explore Lapland’s culture at Arktikum. Stay in city hotels, riverside cabins, or glass igloos for Northern Lights views. Just outside the city, lodges offer a quiet retreat in the wilderness. Winter brings husky sledding, reindeer safaris, and snowmobiling. In summer, the Midnight Sun provides endless daylight for hiking, boat trips, and wildlife spotting.
