5 days in Rovaniemi Itinerary

An urban center set amongst the great Arctic wilderness, Rovaniemi serves as the capital of Lapland province.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Napapiirin Porofarmi and Santa's House of Snowmobiles. Attractions like Photography Tours and Orbas Reindeer Farm make great kid-friendly stops. Change things up with these side-trips from Rovaniemi: Luosto Adventures (in Luosto), Pyhatunturi (in Pelkosenniemi) and Korouoma Canyon (in Posio). There's still lots to do: explore the fascinating underground world of Syvasenvaara Fell, find something for the whole family at Moomin Snowcastle, hit the slopes at Ounasvaaran Hiihtokeskus Oy, and have fun at Angry Birds Park.
