the friend of the world’s children – and friends are
always welcome. Visit Santa any day you please and
experience Christmas in the middle of summer. Surrounded by wintry, dusky forests, the Arctic Circle is
a lifetime experience for visitors young and old. This
is precisely why half a million people travel to meet
Santa Claus every year.

Circle, and shop in the
numerous giftware stores

Experienced guides
lead you safely into
the snowy nature.
adventure
The various examples of skilfully built
snow structures, snow hotels and igloos,
provide fantastic settings to watch the
dance of the Northern Lights.
According to age-old tales, the Northern
Lights are created by a fox swishing its
tail while running over the fells, throwing
sparks into the sky.
Northern Lights –
a heavenly performance
The Northern Lights crown the northern skies, an essential part of magical Lapland. They create a beautiful
performance for the excited audience - and there are
always free seats for this show. People from all over the
world arrive to experience the living images portrayed in
the Lapland skies, spellbound by what they see.
6
Snowy promises
Northern Lights
FACT
The Northern Lights are light phenomena that can be viewed in the southern
and northern polar regions on clear and dark nights in autumn and winter.
Northern Lights are created by solar wind charged particles colliding with the
Earth’s atmosphere.
Twilight
The annual cycle comes to a close with Christmas Twilight, marking the start
of the long, dark season. Winter solstice occurs just before Christmas, a time
in Rovaniemi when the sun doesn’t rise above the horizon. Twilight lasts from
late November to mid-January.
Rovaniemi’s winter pampers its visitors. There are so many
ways to experience the winter and cross the snowscapes.
Programmes cherishing Lappish traditions take you on a
journey to days of old. An astounding number of options
are available, and the Arctic environment perfects the
scene. The unique ambiance gives guests the so-called
Lapland Fever – the best cure for which is to come back
again.
7
Stay up as long
as the sun
Experience Lappish
nature while on the
move. Explore the
environment with a guide
or independently.
The view from the top of
the Ounasvaara Hill over
the river valley basking
in the Midnight Sun is
breathtaking.
Midnight Sun
FACT
In the summertime, the sun doesn’t set below the horizon at all – so
the sun also shines right through the night. The spectacle of the
Midnight Sun can be admired every night between 6 June – 7 July,
providing it’s not a cloudy day!
8
Light of the
Midnight Sun
Summer fun where
you set the pace
Summer in Rovaniemi is dominated by light. Day
and night are just like one long day: the night
disappears, living only in the imagination. Your
body clock sets your daily rhythm, but the environment lives according to nature. It’s time for
dance, togetherness and for nature to blossom.
Light provides energy!
Summer is the time to enjoy activities and unhurried
relaxation. Rovaniemi has a wide variety of activities
for families and company groups. If you want to explore the wider reaches of Lapland, a tour is the best
solution – fly to Rovaniemi and take a car along the
peaceful routes. Outstanding nature and numerous
sights are within easy reach, either independently or
organised.
9
taking you to where
Nature gives to those
who ask. The skill of such
asking is passed down
through generations, but
can also be learned by
anyone.
YOUR MIND IS AT EASE
Nature connection
Rovaniemi is a city with surroundings offering limitless possibilities
for the inspired use of nature. Hiking, berry picking, mushroom
picking and hunting are integral elements of the annual cycle here the connection between nature and people still remains.
Nature touches the people of Rovaniemi in a very special way
- this we wish to share with our visitors.

FACT
Finland’s internationally renowned
architect, Alvar Aalto (18981976), designed the new town
plan following the destruction of
Rovaniemi during the War. The
roads depict a reindeer’s head
and antlers. Thus, the design was
aptly named the Reindeer Antler
Town Plan.
