What to expect

Who will catch the first fish?

Ice fishing is a traditional Finnish experience the whole family can enjoy. Sit comfortably on a reindeer skin as your guide drills a hole through the thick ice right in front of you. Warm up with a hot drink by the fire while you wait for a bite from perch or other freshwater fish.

Just picture it: you’re sitting above several meters of frozen water, surrounded by the quiet beauty of the Arctic wilderness. If you’re lucky and a fish is caught, your guide can prepare it into a simple, delicious snack right there on the ice.
