Ice Floating beneath the Northern Lights in Rovaniemi

Experience the peaceful Arctic night on a relaxing ice floating adventure beneath the awe-inspiring Northern Lights in Rovaniemi. All ages are welcome!

Rovaniemi is the capital city of Finnish Lapland and a haven for winter sports and nature enthusiasts. The city is surrounded by beautiful untouched wilderness, which transforms into a white wonderland during the winter months. Due to its proximity to the Arctic Circle, Rovaniemi is also one of the best places in the world for viewing the Northern Lights!

Start off your ice floating adventure by being picked up by the experienced guide in Rovaniemi - or meet directly at the starting point (please specify when booking). The guide will drive you out to a secluded location in the forest. When you reach the frozen lake, you will go through a safety briefing and instructions for floating. This excursion is completely safe and swimming experience is not necessary. The high-quality survival floating suit will keep you warm and dry even in the 0-degree open waters!

The guide will help you into the water and teach you how to float safely. You will experience true peace and relaxation as you lie back and let the ice hold you up. No sounds will be heard and the night sky will come alive with bright stars. If you’re lucky, the mesmerising Northern Lights will begin to dance above you. There is a higher chance of witnessing this natural phenomenon in remote areas far from the light pollution of the city. After your floating session, hot drinks will be served to warm you up before returning to Rovaniemi centre.

This ice floating experience is the best way to take in the Arctic evening while admiring the amazing Aurora Borealis from Rovaniemi!
