Set out into Finland's beautiful wilderness from Rovaniemi and enjoy a delicious barbecue while taking in the majesty of the Northern Lights! Welcoming adventurers of all ages on this family-friendly excursion.
Rovaniemi is the largest and capital city of Lapland, located in northern Finland. Due to its proximity to the Arctic Circle, this area is renowned for its natural beauty during the winter. Featuring snowy forests, frozen lakes and diverse landscapes, the untouched nature surrounding Rovaniemi is a breathtaking sight to experience. It is also one of the best places in the world to witness the Northern Lights, due to the dark skies and lack of light pollution.
Once you've met your guide at the pre-arranged pick-up location, you'll head out into a more remote area of Finland. Your guide will find the perfect spot to observe the breathtaking night sky and will make a wonderful fire for you and your group to warm yourselves by. A delicious Lappish barbeque with grilled sausages and hot drinks will be served (vegetarian/vegan option is available upon request).
If luck is on your side, you'll be graced by the famous Aurora Borealis, whose colours and forms are absolutely mesmerising. As you enjoy the peacefulness of the forest at night, the guide will share stories about life in Finnish Lapland and the history of this amazing natural phenomenon. After taking in the view, you'll return to Rovaniemi.
This authentic Finnish excursion is a must-do on your trip to Lapland to really experience the Arctic night and magical Northern Lights. Book your unforgettable adventure from Rovaniemi now!
