Ice Fishing Fun on the Lake or River
Join us for a traditional Lappish experience on a fully frozen lake or river, up to 40 km from Rovaniemi. This 3 -hour small-group experience combines peaceful Arctic scenery with the thrill of catching your own fish.
Your adventure begins with meeting your guide. If you need extra warmth, high-quality winter clothing is available for a small additional fee—just let us know in advance by email. During the drive, your guide will share stories about Lapland’s nature, its water inhabitants, and the local ice-fishing traditions.
Once we arrive at the fishing site—chosen according to the day’s ice conditions—you’ll receive a short safety briefing and a hands-on introduction to the equipment. Your guide will show you how to drill your own fishing hole and explain the best techniques to attract a catch. While you wait for a bite, enjoy warm drinks and light snacks around a crackling fire and soak in the quiet beauty of the Arctic wilderness.
If you land a good-sized edible fish, your guide will clean it and cook it for you right on the fire with a simple touch of salt, lemon, and butter. You can also test your skills by drilling into the ice to discover just how thick it can be at the height of winter.
After this relaxing yet exciting adventure, we’ll return you comfortably to your accommodation in Rovaniemi.

About us
We started this journey with a simple philosophy: bring back the small, meaningful touches of travel that we love to share when family or friends visit. Keep it real, take your time to enjoy the experience, and give your best to every moment – beautiful places, healthy time outdoors, learning about nature, and connecting with the Lappish lifestyle.
We are two travel enthusiasts who turned our passion into a company after decades of working in tourism and hospitality, both in Lapland and beyond.
Patrik
Patrik began his career as a guide in Lapland before moving into tour operations, gaining extensive experience in both luxury travel and large-scale tours. He has seen the best of both worlds and wants to give guests the best experience possible – without overcharging or rushing anyone like a herd, so every moment can be truly enjoyed.
Martin
Martin knew from his teens that his work would be outdoors and full of adrenaline. He started young as a guide, leading adventures from mountaineering and climbing to canyoning and rafting. A few years ago, he founded a company in Slovenia for canyoning and rafting, and after spending several winters in Lapland, it became his second home.
