8 days in Rovaniemi Itinerary

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

Venture out of the city with trips to Giewont Husky Adventures (in Kittila), Amethyst Mine Lapland (in Luosto) and Pyhatunturi (in Pelkosenniemi). Spend the 15th (Sat) exploring nature at Pyha-Luosto National Park. There's much more to do: make a trip to Santa Claus Village, take a memorable tour with Tours, get in on the family fun at SantaPark - the Home Cavern of Santa Claus, and get engrossed in the history at Arktikum.
