Rovaniemi Northern Lights tours are always on the “must-do” list for visitors to Finnish Lapland’s capital city, but in the second half of winter, we are really entering one of the best stretches of the winter season.

The shortest winter days are now in the rear-view mirror. From January onwards, winter in Rovaniemi takes on a new rhythm. Daylight stretches a little further each day, and the snowy landscapes of Finnish Lapland become easier to explore.

If you’re planning a trip to Finnish Lapland and wondering where to spend your time, the small arctic village of Levi is a destination worth putting at the top of your list. Levi is best known for its winter scenery, relaxed atmosphere and easy access to nature.

The full snow cover of the winter season has settled over Levi, bringing with it ideal conditions for traditional winter travel. This means our reindeer sled rides, available from 31.12.2025 all the way until late March are available for booking now!

Christmas magic is taking over in Rovaniemi! With snow on the ground, darkening nights and December just around the corner, now is the time to make sure you are on Santa’s “Nice list” in time for Christmas!
