Our Finnish Lapland holidays & tours
Finland’s most northerly region is enshrined in folklore and fairytale. It’s home to Father Christmas and his elves, but it’s also home to European nature at its most elemental, to lynx and wolves, and a wilderness that’s covered in snow for months at a time. Europe’s only recognised Indigenous people, the Sami, have shaped the culture and the landscape here. It’s through their living culture and through the protection of national parks, that Lapland and its nature are given space to breathe. Our Finnish Lapland holidays work closely with Sami communities, giving you remarkable insight into the area, whilst supporting their way of life. Learn how to track brown bears, ski across kilometres of unmarked snow, spend time with reindeer herders, and gaze at the Northern Lights.

Finnish Lapland map & highlights
Thankfully much of Finnish Lapland's wilderness has been protected. You can zip through the boreal beauty of Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park on a husky safari, or see the Northern Lights from the remote dark skies of Urho-Kekkonen National Park where there are superb snow shoeing and cross country trails, such as the circular 40km Nuortti Hiking Trail. Lemmenjoki National Park has immense Sįmi heritage and is a wonderful spot to go on reindeer safaris, with reindeer herding an important Sįmi tradition. This is a region that feels as if it goes on forever. And when the skies light up, you never want it to end.

Lake Inari
1. Lake Inari
Finland’s third largest lake is a top spot for learning about Sįmi culture, particularly at the new Siida Sįmi Museum. Adventure also awaits, with cross country skiing around the lake, or snow shoeing through silent, snow laden pine forests. And then a moment of magic, when both the water and the gaps between the trees are illuminated by nature’s greatest light show. Lake Inari: lights, camera, action.
Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park
2. Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park
With over 1,000km2 of boreal forest, high fells and a web of hiking trails, this is one of the most stunning national parks for winter wanderings. This is some of the country’s most untouched wilderness, and being whisked across white plains or frozen lakes by your own team of huskies is Finnish fun at its finest. Nearby Menesjärvi Lake is similarly mesmeric.
Urho-Kekkonen National Park
3. Urho-Kekkonen National Park
With super dark skies, this wilderness is a dreamy spot for Northern Lights seekers who want to see the illuminated skies for as far as possible. Indeed, this park stretches from Saariselkä all the way to the Russian border. The park has special Aurora cabins with large glass sloping roofs for ultimate viewing. This region is particularly stunning as the leaves make their own autumnal colour show too.
Lemmenjoki National Park
4. Lemmenjoki National Park
There are two important sources in this park. The natural one is the River Lemmenjoki and the cultural one is the homelands of the Sįmi. Take a river trip through the valley between Njurkulahti and Kultasatama, visit the Ravadas Falls, or hike across the wild and wonderful Joenkielinen fell. An area once sought after by gold panners, there are still some seeking glistening rewards here today.
Luosto
5. Luosto
People choose to get married here, arriving at an ice chapel in a reindeer driven sleigh. And although this sounds like Las Vegas ą la Lapland, it isn’t. It’s just all about enjoying the outdoors and, in particular, snow. From husky safaris or ice fishing to snow shoeing or cross country skiing, as well as the annual Luosto Classic Festival all held in natural amphitheatres of forests and fells. The latter in summer, of course.
Rovaniemi
6. Rovaniemi
The capital of Finnish Lapland place where letters addressed simply ‘Santa, Lapland’ end up. It also has an airport so it’s the starting point of many a foray into Finnish Lapland. The town was virtually wiped out by the Nazis at the end of WW11, which is why it has a modern feel, but it is a very young city packed with educational institutions. It is also accessible by sleeper train from Helsinki.

The whole experience was fantastic and it is difficult to pick a single part of the holiday as the most memorable... Fantastic. It will remain in our memories for many years to come. I highly recommend it.read more
Patti Risch16 Apr 2025
The most memorable part of our trip to Lapland, Finland, was spending time in the Arctic Circle and making personal connections with the Sami people—the Sami museum, the Husky sleigh ride, ice fishing, and meeting a Sami woman and having conversations about life on her reindeer farm.read more
