Rovaniemi Snowmobiling Ice Fishing 5-Hour Lapland Tour

Warm up lakeside with hot soup and panoramic views after your Arctic ride

A 5-hour snowmobiling and ice fishing activity from Rovaniemi in which you ride across snowy pastures to a remote lake, drop a line through the ice, and eat lunch while admiring panoramic views of the Lapland wilderness. Winter clothing, snowmobile instruction, and round-trip transport from Rovaniemi are included. Children aged 4–14 ride in a sledge behind the guide's snowmobile, and you'll need a valid driver's license to operate a snowmobile yourself.

The experience

You spend roughly 2.5 to 3 hours on the snowmobile, traveling across frozen rivers and snowy pastures into the heart of the Lappish countryside. The guide leads the way and handles the route. You sit as a passenger or, if you have a valid driver's license, operate your own machine (two people share one snowmobile). Winter clothing is provided, so you stay warm in the cold.

At the fishing spot, you drop your line through the ice while the guide prepares a hot soup lunch on-site. The lake sits in the middle of the wilderness, and the panoramic views stretch across the pretty scenery around you. You eat and fish at the same time, with hot drinks available throughout the day. The whole experience lasts about 5 hours from pickup in Rovaniemi to your return.
