One of which is ice-fishing, which is popular with locals and tourists alike. The perfect way to enjoy time in Finland's spectacular winter wonderland!

Once you've put on your winter gear, including thermal overalls, boots, wool socks, a hat, a scarf, and gloves, you'll enjoy a scenic drive to the ice-fishing location. Then, the adventure begins!

You and your group (a maximum of 30 participants) will receive a safety briefing along with an introduction to ice-fishing and ice-fishing techniques. With the help of your guide, you will drill a hole in the frozen ice.
