Where to Go in Finnish Lapland

Rovaniemi and Santa Claus Village

Rovaniemi is the capital of Lapland and the official home of Santa Claus. Santa Claus Village sits just outside the city on the Arctic Circle line and is a highlight of every Christmas and New Year departure.

Saariselkä

A small village in the far north that serves as a base for winter activities such as husky safaris and snowmobiling.

Helsinki

Helsinki is the start of Best of Lapland & Norway in Nutshell. Landmarks include Helsinki Cathedral, Market Square and the Suomenlinna sea fortress.

Winter Activities on Finland Tours

Activities vary by tour, so check each tour page for the exact program. Typical winter activities in Lapland include:

  • Snowshoeing: guided walks through snow-covered forest.
  • Dog sledding: a ride behind a husky team.
  • Reindeer safaris: a quiet sleigh ride, often combined with a visit to a reindeer farm.
  • Skiing: downhill or cross-country, depending on the tour.
  • Glass igloo stay: a heated glass-roofed cabin with a view of the sky.
  • Santa Claus Village: Santa's office and the Arctic Circle line.

Northern Lights in Finland

Winter departures fall within the northern lights season, and a glass igloo stay gives you a chance to watch the sky from your room. The aurora depends on clear skies, so no tour can guarantee a sighting. For more on viewing windows and destinations, see our northern lights tours page.

Best Time to Visit Finland

Winter, from December to March, is the best time for snow activities, Christmas in Lapland and the northern lights. June to August brings the Midnight Sun and long daylight for outdoor sightseeing.
