Activities in Rovaniemi

  1. Santapark

    This Christmas-theme amusement park is built inside a cavern in the mountain and features an army of elves baking gingerbread, a magic sleigh ride, a Christmas carousel, an ice-bar, a theatre, a restaurant and, of course, Santa Claus himself. The most intriguing section is the gallery of ice sculpture, though it costs an extra €10 per person. It’s great fun for kids in winter but lacks a bit of atmosphere in the summer season.

Skiing equipment can be rented here, and there's also a fun toboggan run alongside the Sky Ounasvaara hotel, open year-round if it's not raining.

    Lapland Safaris

    In summer there are river cruises, whitewater rafting, fishing and trips to reindeer and husky farms. In winter, it's snowmobiling, sled safaris and skiing. Lapland Safaris is the largest and best-established of Rovaniemi's tour operators.
