33 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.7 average  ·  from $35

Snowshoes are the cheapest way into the forest and the only one that works off the trails. No skill needed and no engine noise, which is why the guides use them for wildlife and for the quiet aurora walks. These 15 are compared on distance, pace and what gets cooked at the halfway point.

Rovaniemi: Hiking and Snowshoeing Adventure in Lapland

1.Hiking and Snowshoeing Adventure in Lapland

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 753 reviews · 3 hours · from $104Our pick

3-hour Arctic Circle snowshoe hike in Rovaniemi with hotel pickup, winter gear, and gingerbread plus hot blueberry juice.

“Fantastic experience. We were very fortunate to have amazing weather with a beautiful sunrise and clear skies from the look-out point at the top of the hill, plus there was a lot of fresh snow from the night before that made it extra fun to walk with the snowshoes. We were group of about 18 people with 2 guides. The guides were very friendly, they let us stay a bit longer at the look-out point given the great weather, and they took great care of the entire group. I'd highly recommend this activity.”

Half-day Lapland snowshoe and ice-fishing tour with round-trip transport, warm gear, hot drinks, and grilled sausages by the fire.

“Het sneeuwschoenwandelen was echt geweldig! We kozen om het bospad te doen en dit was uitdagend, maar veel leuker dan enkel over het meer. Eenmaal klaar met wandelen zochten we een plekje op het meer om een gat te maken. Dit was erg leuk. Tijdens het vissen zelf moet je staan en krijg je geen stoeltjes. Helaas niets gevangen, maar er werd ook niet uitgelegd wat de beste manier is om een vis te vangen enkel hoe ver je lijn in het water moet hangen. Achteraf bleek dat je zo stil mogelijk moet staan en zijn. Gelukkig was het vuurtje in de tipi tent heerlijk en waren de worstjes die…”

So many things are included in this adventure that you get a full taste of the arctic life. We recommend it.”
