Activities

Arctic bucket list activities are the highlight of your trip to Rovaniemi and Finland. These unique experiences are available right at the doorstep of Arctic SnowHotel & Glass Igloos. Every season offers its own snowy and icy adventures, which are our specialty.

Arctic SnowHotel & Glass Igloos offers winter activities in Rovaniemi already in autumn. Each of our three seasons – autumn, early winter and winter – have their own special activities and highlights.

For example, with us, you can try ice sculpting year-round. You can also visit a local reindeer farm, explore Laplandic nature by foot, snowshoes, or e-bikes, or even meet Rovaniemi’s most famous resident, Santa Claus, durind a visit to Santa Claus Village. Our saunas and outdoor jacuzzi are extremely popular throughout the seasons, offering an arctic spa experience where you can bathe under the northern skies while sipping a sparkling drink.

Autumn Activities Sep 1 – Oct 31

Would you like to experience Rovaniemi in autumn? Our selection of activities celebrates local experiences with a chilly twist! In addition to ice sculpting, you can visit the world's northernmost animal park. We offer guided tours of the surrounding nature by foot or e-bikes. For a soothing and relaxing experience, enjoy our sauna sessions.

Early Winter Activities Nov 1 – Dec 14

Discover the coolest things Rovaniemi has to offer in early winter at Arctic SnowHotel & Glass Igloos. Along with ice sculpting, the approaching winter allows for short reindeer sleigh rides and traditional ice fishing. As most of our ice hotel is built during early winter, the sauna experiences and outdoor jacuzzi feel especially arctic, surrounded by snow.

Winter Activities Dec 15 – Mar 31

One of the most unique winter activities in Rovaniemi is our winter sauna. We open our snow and ice hotel on December 15th, which is when our selection of sauna experiences expands to include a one-of-a-kind sauna made of snow. Winter is also the perfect time to try ice fishing, snowshoe walks, or visit a reindeer farm. If you wish to explore the Arctic nature surrounding our hotel further, we offer a variety of ways to do it.

Activities Free of Charge for Every Season

In addition to paid activities, Arctic SnowHotel & Glass Igloos offers something free to do in every season for both day visitors and overnight guests.

Our overnight guests can also enjoy other complimentary activities from autumn to winter, and our sauna is available every evening. Read more on the Your stay page.
