The experience
Your day begins with a comfortable ride in a brand-new 2025 luxury 4×4 van. Soon you'll arrive at our private lakefront property, surrounded by snowy forest and Arctic silence. Your guide shows you how to drill through the ice, set up your rod, and fish the traditional Lapland way — with a little luck, you might catch perch, one of Finland's most famous fish.
While waiting for a bite, relax by the fire with hot drinks and a barbecue of grilled sausages, a true Arctic tradition. Whether you catch a fish or not, standing on a frozen lake under Lapland's vast winter sky is unforgettable.
This tour is easy and suitable for beginners and families, though children under 8 may find the cold challenging.
