Step into one of Lapland’s most iconic winter landscapes on this premium small-group adventure to Riisitunturi National Park.

Riisitunturi is world-famous for its surreal snow-covered trees, often called Arctic Snow Monsters. Formed by extreme cold, heavy snowfall and strong winds, these frozen giants create a winter scenery found nowhere else in Finland. This experience takes you far beyond the city, deep into untouched Arctic wilderness, where silence, snow and nature set the pace.

Travel comfortably from Rovaniemi through scenic winter landscapes before arriving at the national park. After a short preparation and safety briefing, begin a guided winter hike along maintained trails at a relaxed, unhurried pace. The route is designed to be enjoyable rather than physically demanding, with plenty of stops to admire the scenery and capture photos.

Along the way, your local guide shares insights about Arctic nature, wildlife and the unique conditions that create Riisitunturi’s famous snow monsters. Depending on snow conditions, snowshoes are provided to ensure safe and comfortable walking.

Midway through the experience, stop at a wilderness camp to enjoy a traditional Finnish lunch prepared over an open fire. Hot drinks are served as you relax surrounded by snow-covered trees and pure Arctic silence — a moment many guests describe as the highlight of the day.

With a maximum of 8 participants, this small-group experience offers a calm, personal atmosphere and plenty of time to truly enjoy one of Finland’s most photographed winter destinations. You’ll return to Rovaniemi in the late afternoon with unforgettable memories of Lapland’s iconic winter scenery.
