There are few places in the world where people are willing to sit for hours in the freezing cold with a small fishing rod in hand. In Finland ice fishing is a popular way of spending time and an important tradition that some even miss during the summer. This is your chance to see whether you too will get hooked on ice fishing! This activity is perfect for everyone who is interested in nature, looking for calming things to do in winter or simply wants to find an easy and fun way to get to know the local culture.

Our expert guide will take you to a nearby frozen lake, where you will learn how to drill through the thick ice. Then comes the most exciting part: dropping your line into the frigid water and waiting for a fish to start tugging. The custom is to avoid loud speaking and moving so that the fish won’t get scared. The world around you seems to disappear, and you can truly feel the nature around you. It is said that ice fishing is like meditation. Even if you do not catch anything, you’ll have experienced a real Finnish winter tradition and even gained a new skill!
