Ice Fishing Tour
Description
This Ice Fishing Trip will offer you a great chance to catch your breath in the silence of Lapland nature while experiencing a traditional activity that many locals like to practice. Our Ice Fishing Trip will take you to a frozen lake outside Rovaniemi. The place we choose for ice fishing not only offers a good chance to catch something but we also help restore ones tranquility and peace of mind. Many locals still practice this activity during the winter to catch food for themselves or their dogs and to enjoy the relaxing serenity of Lapland nature. On all our excursions, our groups are limited to 8 travelers maximum. It is very important for us to provide you with the best experience possible, and avoid mass tourism. This way, your guide will know you better and will be able to address all your needs and answer your questions. As we usually say - the smaller the group, the bigger the experience!

If you think are going fishing, well this is not for you. I’m pretty sure NO one has ever caught a fish. The fishing gear is plastic Temu crap. The guide is very much apart of the scam. He has no fishing experience. Hands down, the biggest scam on this site. My granddaughter was so disappointed - It’s very expensive in Findland and this experience leaves you feeling not just disappointed or a waste of time - but most important - Good lord mate, what ever happened to ethical behavior - you don’t treat kids like this! The little ones shouldn’t be used like this!!! Please stop this!!!
A great experience didn’t catch anything but the whole experience was great well worth it and our guide was great
We spent the morning with our Guide Julieta after a lovely drive we arrived at our own exclusive teepee by the side of a frozen lake. We drilled our own holes in the ice and fished for an hour or so - it could have been longer but the fire, hot chocolate and fired cooked sausages with potato bread and Finnish mustard was too enticing. A highlight was learning to use a flint stick to start a fire with bark !! Loved the tour and Julieta couldn't do enough for us. She gave us heaps of time and dropped as at the Arktikum museum when back in town.
We loved this tour! While we did not catch any fish (which is common), we had a wonderful experience being on a frozen lake, manually drilling holes in the ice, and trying to fish with a tiny rod! The included campfire, sausage and hot drink were a bonus! Our guide Matu made the tour very educational and entertaining by sharing his experiences and information about the region.
The Ice Fishing trip was an experience - there were just the 4 of us in our group which was perfect. It was hard work drilling through the 1 meter thick ice but reassuring to know how thick it was! Then it's a case of sitting there and hoping. The other 2 people in our group did catch something but 'they got away'. It was great fun and I'm glad we did it.
Thank you very much for this nice review about your Ice Fishing Experience with Wild About Lapland. We are happy to hear that the tour met your expectations and you enjoyed this local activity in the middle of beautiful Arctic nature. Warm regards, Dominik Wild About Lapland
I have never fished before but that didn’t matter because they explain exactly what to do. The process of drilling into the ice was so fun. We didn’t catch anything but that didn’t affect my experience at all. It was so fun to sit in the middle of a frozen lake. when you are finished there is a teepee with a fire and sausages waiting for you. Sitting in the teepee around the fire was equally as fun as fishing.
Dear Mary, Thank you very much for this wonderful review and your kind words! We are happy to hear that your Ice Fishing Trip was memorable and you had such a great time with us! Welcome back anytime! Warm regards, Dominik Wild About Lapland
Just experienced the ultimate winter wonderland adventure! Our family of four went ice fishing on frozen Jyrhämäjärvi lake, and had the entire lake to ourselves! Huge thanks to our amazing guide Eneko, who taught us how to ice fish, start a fire with flint and steel, and even BBQ sausages in a cozy teepee tent! This trip was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your Ice Fishing Tour with Wild About Lapland! We are glad that you enjoyed a good time with Eneko and hope to welcome you back in the future! Warm regards, Dominik Wild About Lapland
Our guide was really knowledgeable and very friendly. She explained the afternoon activities very well and we had a nice time. I think perhaps the location and shallow part of the lake we fished wasn’t ideal.
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear that you found our guide knowledgeable and friendly, and that you enjoyed the afternoon activities. We appreciate your input regarding the fishing location and will take it into consideration for future trips. We hope you'll join us again for another adventure soon! Kind regards, Wild About Lapland Sales Team
We've not seen any fish but I was not expecting to catch something. We appreciated the surrounding, the small size of our group, all the tips and curiosities out guide (cannot remember the name, the Croatian guy) shared with us, this was the plus of this tour!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're genuinely pleased to hear that you enjoyed the natural surroundings and the intimate atmosphere of our small group. It's heartening to know that despite not catching any fish, you still found value in the insightful tips and stories shared by our guide Bozo. Your appreciation for his knowledge truly means a lot to us, and we're thrilled that his guidance made your tour memorable. Warm regards, Wild About Lapland Sales Team
Barbs was an amazing tour guide, she made sure the children in the group had a great time! Lovely memories were made and it was an unforgettable experience.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted to hear that Barbs made your tour unforgettable, especially for the children in your group. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to her. If you ever find yourself back in the area, we'd love to have you join us for another adventure! Kind regards, Wild About Lapland Sales Team
