Spend five hours ice fishing at Rahajärvi, then cook your catch over an open fire with expert guides in Finnish Lapland.
“Absolutely fantastic 😍 We went as a family of 6 with young kids and grand parents. Everyone loved the activity so much. The members of the Xwander are fabulous. They explained in great details how to fish, performed demonstrations for everyone and were of great help with the kids. We caught fish with a fishing line, then checked the nets. Eventually we had such a great time around the fire in the tent. This day by the lake in the forest is one of our best experiences ever. A must do in Lapland!”
Review of Saariselkä’s Lake Inari ice fishing tour, with snowmobile sled rides, reindeer, lunch, warm gear, costs, tips, and practical advice.
“Such a fun experience! Our guide, Miko, was amazing and so accommodating. It starts off by getting equipped with warm clothing and equipment, then getting driven to the lake which is like a 20 minute journey. Then you ride on the sleigh on the lake, such a cool yet cold experience (the wind) ! Then the fishing starts! He demonstrates how to make the hole and you take turns trying to make your fishing hole (he ends up making them when we’re all tired). Then he demonstrates how to fish and you spend 30 minutes trying to catch something - seems short but it’s a long time when it’s cold.…”
