6 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 Orbas Reindeer Farm. Attractions like Marttiini Store Old Factory and Santa's House of Snowmobiles make great kid-friendly stops. Venture out of the city with trips to Ski Resort Ritavalkea (in Pello), Tatuka Reindeerfarm (in Ylitornio) and Duudsonit Activity Park - TornioHaparanda (in Tornio). There's lots more to do: explore the fascinating underground world of Syvasenvaara Fell, browse the different shops at Sampokeskus Shopping Centre, get engrossed in the history at Forestry Museum of Lapland, and let the kids burn off some steam at Angry Birds Park.
