Welcome to Lapland - the land of snow, northern lights and Santa Claus. When we grew up we learnt Santa did not exist, but a small part of us is yearning for that adventure although not real still magical. You are invited to immerse yourself in one of the wonders of nature, Aurora Borealis, which is visible in Finnish Lapland more than 200 nights a year. Add to this days packed full of sled dog touring, snowmobile drive and reindeers across white magical forest during polar night. You are one with nature and the snow adorned playground is all yours to explore!

Aurora Borealis known as Northern Lights is actually a chemical phenomenon as the result of collisions between gaseous particles in the Earth's atmosphere with charged particles released from the sun's atmosphere. Variations in colour are due to the type of gas particles that are colliding. Call it swirling or dancing ribbons of light, one thing for sure - it stands out as top of life time experiences for anyone that had a chance to see it.

Statistically, the Northern Lights can be seen on every other night, or even on three out of four nights, during the season in Finnish Lapland, however as every other element of nature can not be guaranteed, we will however pursue it as long as it is only possible!

Rovaniemi is finish capitol of Lapland, moreover it is claimed as a home for Santa Claus, meaning exactly where old man reads the letters and decides who gets what under the tree ;))
