Overview

On Lake Bodom, the largest in the Helsinki region, located just 25 minutes from central Helsinki, I invite you to an ice fishing initiation using the Pilkki, the Nordic fishing rod! Once there we will walk on the lake to find the ideal place where there is the best chance of catching fish.
I will then explain how to make a hole in the ice and how to use the pilkki. Then it's up to you! You will be ready to catch lots of fish!
At the end, in a Laavu, the traditional refuge, I will make a fire to be able to grill the makkara, the traditional sausages. There is also an option for vegetarians. I will also serve you a delicious glögi as well as piparri, traditional cookies.

What's included

  • Glögi
  • Air-conditioned vehicle
  • "Makkara" Finnish grilled sausages. Options for vegetarians as well.

What to expect

Ice fishing is one of the most popular traditional Nordic activities in Finland in winter. During this unforgettable experience, in a unique natural setting, I will combine all the chances on our side to fish for fish such as perch, pike or even pike-perch.
We will end this magnificent experience around a fire to taste delicious grilled sausages accompanied by glögi and piparri, the traditional Christmas cookies.
