Canoeing is the perfect and most relaxing way to discover Lapland in summer while respecting its untouched nature. Finland, also known as the Land of a Thousand Lakes, is indeed covered by more than 188 000 lakes. A significant amount of them is located in Lapland and offer, with the fells and forests, beautiful harmonious landscapes. The lakes and rivers are also home of many birds and little mammals, such as geese, swans, longspurs, cranes, otters... If you are lucky enough, you may easily spot many of them!
In all our activities, our groups are limited to 8 people maximum. It is very important for us to provide you with the best experience possible, and avoid mass tourism. This way, your guide will know you better and will be able to address all your needs and answer your questions. As we usually say – the smaller the group, the bigger the experience!
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Hotel pick-ups commence between 5 and 30 minutes prior to the start time. Your pick up time will be confirmed by e-mail one day prior to the activity. If you stay in hotels or resorts, please wait at the reception. If you stay in a private apartment, please wait outside in front of the main entrance so your guide can easily find you.
If you're staying in Rovaniemi city center, please walk to our office at Rovakatu 24 as we no longer provide city pick-ups, supporting sustainable tourism. Staying outside the city center? Send us an email at least 48 hours before the tour and we'll arrange free pick-up within a 10-kilometre radius!
What to expect
While paddling, you will feel the peacefulness of the nature surrounding you and enjoy a complete different perspective of Lapland!
Once back ashore, you will be welcomed by an open fire and some typical Finnish campfire snack. This is a good moment for your guide to show you how to build and lit a fire (without matches or lighter) using a flint & steel. They will also explain you more about Lapland, life in the Arctic, and nature. Every moment of this tour is a great opportunity for those of you who are photography enthusiasts, so do not forget to bring your camera along (but be careful with water).
The tour lasts 3 hours, including transportation, canoeing and safety instructions, paddling time and the snack around the fire.
