Ice Fishing

THE EXPERIENCE

Your day in the north.

Ever wondered what’s happening beneath the ice of a frozen Lapland lake? Here's your chance to find out!

Our adventure begins on snowmobiles as we head through the beautiful Arctic wilderness towards our fishing spot. Once we've arrived, your guide will show you the tricks of traditional ice fishing, from drilling a hole through the frozen lake to baiting your hook and trying your luck.

Then it's over to you! Will you manage to outsmart a hungry perch, or perhaps something even bigger? There's only one way to find out.

With the fishing underway, we'll enjoy something warm to drink and a bite to eat out in the fresh Arctic air. Whether the fish are biting or not, there's plenty to enjoy before we fire up the snowmobiles and make our way home.

A fantastic combination of snowmobiling, hands-on ice fishing and the magic of a Lapland winter.
