6 days in Rovaniemi Itinerary

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

Take a break from the city and head to Safaris and Kopara Reindeer Park. Kids will enjoy Santa Claus Village and SantaPark - the Home Cavern of Santa Claus. Change things up with these side-trips from Rovaniemi: Syote National Park (in Syote), Pyha-Luosto National Park (in Pyhatunturi) and Korouoma Canyon (in Posio). There's still lots to do: take an in-depth tour of Arktikum, take in the views from Lumberjack's Candle Bridge, see Santa Claus Office, and explore the different monuments and memorials at German Soldier s Cemetery.
