Riisitunturi Snow Monsters Winter Hike from Rovaniemi

Step into one of Lapland’s most iconic winter landscapes on a premium small-group adventure to Riisitunturi National Park. Known for its surreal snow-covered trees, often called Arctic Snow Monsters, the park’s frozen giants are formed by extreme cold, heavy snowfall, and strong winds, creating a winter scenery unlike anywhere else in Finland. This tour takes you far from the city into pristine Arctic wilderness, where silence, snow, and nature set a peaceful pace, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the magical surroundings.

Travel comfortably from Rovaniemi through scenic winter landscapes before beginning a guided winter hike along maintained trails. The route is designed for relaxation rather than physical challenge, with stops to admire the scenery and capture photographs. Along the way, your local guide shares insights about Arctic nature, wildlife, and the unique conditions that create the snow monsters. Depending on snow levels, snowshoes are provided for safe and comfortable walking. Midway, enjoy a traditional Finnish lunch prepared over an open fire at a wilderness camp, accompanied by hot drinks and surrounded by snow-covered trees. With a maximum of 8 participants, this small-group experience offers a personal and calm atmosphere, leaving you with unforgettable memories of Finland’s iconic winter scenery.
