The Experience
Your day begins with a comfortable ride in one of our brand-new 2025 luxury 4×4 vans. Soon you’ll arrive at our private lakefront property, surrounded by snowy forests and Arctic silence.
Here your guide will show 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 — or another freshwater species.
While waiting for your catch, relax by the fire. Your guide will prepare hot drinks and a barbecue with grilled sausages — a true Arctic tradition. Whether you catch a fish or not, the peace of standing on a frozen lake under Lapland’s vast winter sky is unforgettable.
This tour is easy and suitable for beginners and families, but children under 8 may find it challenging in very cold conditions.
