Scale Frozen Waterfalls in the Magnificent Korouoma Canyon on an Epic Ice Climbing Day Trip


Journey into the heart of the Korouoma Canyon, a spectacular fracture valley millions of years old that drops over 100 meters below the surrounding terrain. During the winter months, this geological wonder transforms into a frozen paradise, hosting 10 to 20 magnificent ice falls. Among these, the famous Ruskea virta, Mammutti, and Jaska Jokunen stand as towering testaments to the power of nature, offering some of the most challenging and rewarding ice climbing opportunities in all of Finland.


Your day begins in Rovaniemi, where your professional guide will meet you with all the necessary technical gear packed and ready. After a scenic 1.5-hour drive to the Posio region, you will embark on a 1 to 1.5-hour hike through the serene taiga forest. This trek to the base of the ice fall is an experience in itself, allowing you to breathe in the crisp Arctic air and admire the snow-covered landscape before the real climbing begins.


Once you reach the ice fall, your guide will meticulously prepare the rope lines to ensure the highest safety standards for your climb. While the equipment is being set up, you will have the chance to enjoy a warm, energizing snack and capture stunning photos of the gorge. This break provides a perfect moment to appreciate the sheer scale of the frozen walls and the quiet majesty of the canyon, which was only discovered as a climbing destination in the 1980s.


The actual ice climbing experience is tailored to your skill level, providing a thrilling challenge whether you are a beginner or an experienced climber. With the guidance of experts, you will learn the techniques required to ascend these vertical frozen structures. This day trip is more than just a sport; it is an immersive Arctic adventure that combines physical challenge, natural beauty, and the unique thrill of conquering one of Finland's most iconic winter landmarks.

Although there are no frozen waterfalls in summer, the forest and small rivers are still charming. The forest is relatively sparse, so it can get quite hot on sunny days.

Nature in all its glory. It should be taken into account that the walking route from the parking lot to the place is relatively short, but it is downhill and at the end of the trip you have to climb it back up. We arrived in winter, so it is recommended to have shoes with spikes. The place itself has several places where you can light a fire and prepare food over the fire. The frozen waterfalls are beautiful and you should heed the warnings and not get too close for fear of falling blocks of ice. Definitely recommended

Nice hike to the frozen waterfalls. We walked the bigger round. It’s good but bring your spikes with you. If you forgot them; you can rent spikes for 5€ per pair.
