Evie was a great guide, supporting each and every person on the tour through the sometimes tough conditions. its worthwhile noting that this hike can be strenuous, particularly where there isnt enough snow. Be prepared to slide on your bottom to get past some of the treks. don't book anything afterwards either as the tour went longer than expected, got back at 6.30pm.

Full description

Discover the Korouoma Canyon, a 30-kilometer-long and 130-meter-deep canyon located southeast of Rovaniemi which offers breathtaking scenery all year round. During the winter, admire the stunning sight of waterfalls that have transformed into fantastic ice formations. Start with pickup from your accommodation around Rovaniemi, or in the city center, and set off for the Korouoma Canyon nature reserve. Start the tour with a hike through the park, admiring spectacular scenery including cliffs, rapids, and waterfalls. Keep your eyes sharp to observe an array of rare species that call the area home. Snowshoes are optional but may be useful if you need more confidence when hiking down the canyon or just want to enjoy some deep snow walks. Then, observe some of the most spectacular frozen waterfalls in Europe and enjoy the beauty of snowy nature. Warm up with a typical Finnish campfire snack around an open fire constructed by your guide. Learn more about Lapland and the Arctic region's traditions with your guide throughout the day. After an early morning of adventure, return to Rovaniemi where you will be dropped off at your hotel in the late afternoon.

Our guide Emily was really nice and professional. We really enjoyed the day trip. Would recommend this tour for anyone visiting Rovaniemi that wants something different to Santa Claus. It was very magical walking through the snowy Finnish forest and enjoy a little fire Emily made for us. The winter overall and boots were really good. Thank you!
