Overview

The Arctic TreeHouse Hotel is situated in the forest within the Santa Park at Rovaniemi. With spectacular views over the treetops, the TreeHouse suites offer an exclusive combination of local tradition, Lappish heritage and modern Scandinavian design.

For the adventurous amongst us, you can combine exhilarating activities such as dog sledding and snowmobiling. For the romantics out there, hunting the dancing colours of the Northern Lights is one for the bucket list. For those with children, Santa and his many helpers are waiting to say ‘hello’, busy in any season. If you want to enjoy ice fishing and ice floating like Eugene Levy, we can add these into your program.

Much is to be said however, for simply soaking up the stunning nature whilst enjoying the seclusion of your exquisite Treehouse Hotel Suite.

Day 1 – Arrive Rovaniemi and transfer to the Arctic TreeHouse Hotel.

Arrive in Rovaniemi airport and transfer to Arctic Treehouse Hotel. If you arrive early, lunch is at the hotel’s restaurant.

Freshen up in your room and start exploring the forests & small town of Rovaniemi.

Day 2 – Reindeer Farm Visit

Visit authentic reindeer farm outside of Rovaniemi and enjoy unforgettable sleigh ride through the snowy forests.

The tour is guided by professional photographer, who will take the most memorable photos from the visit and will send them to your email afterwards!

You will meet the reindeer herder family who have been practising reindeer herding at least 5 generations in this traditional farm. During your visit you will explore everyday life in the farm, get to feed the reindeers and take 2 km ride on a sleigh pulled by reindeers. You will also hear some great stories and facts about reindeer herding in Lapland and how it is an integral part of the nature and culture in Northern Finland.

Day 3 – Husky Sleigh Ride and Northern Lights tour

After breakfast head out for a husky safari. Even close to Rovaniemi centre, the wilderness surrounds you. The eager dogs await for you for a speedy ride in the sledges, you will mushing in teams of two for a 5km ride. Children travel in a sleigh with the guide. After the ride you have time to get familiar with the dogs and hear about their daily life.

In the evening, experience the magic of Lapland on an electric snowmobile. Ride your eSleds to the top of a hill, far from the city lights – an ideal place for watching the Northern Lights. You will stop to observe and admire the night sky and stars, and, if we are lucky, see the Northern Lights as well. The guide will help you with camera settings if you wish to take pictures. During the stop warm yourself by the fire in a private hunting cabin and enjoy a Finnish style grilling.

Snowshoeing is one of the best ways to move in deep snow. Dating back at least 3500 years, this ancient form of winter hiking is ideal for exploring Lappish nature offering great opportunities for photography. Snowshoes grant us access to remote areas allowing us to connect with untouched nature and take in the glorious atmosphere of Arctic forests.

From Rovaniemi we will travel by minivan to our location hidden in the woods. During th excurions we will have a break in an authentic Lappish Kota shelter where we will build a campfire and enjoy some snacks while photographing  Arctic nature.
