11 of the best things to do in Lapland
The modern-day home of Santa Claus, a popular skiing destination and one of the best places to see the Northern Lights, Lapland is at the top of plenty of travellers’ wishlists for a reason.
Many who visit will stop by in the Finnish Lapland capital, Rovaniemi, take to the pistes in Levi or Yllas and save some time for classic activities like husky sledding or snowmobiling.
But this region, which extends through parts of Finland, Norway and Sweden, has a host of other wonders to explore, from vast hiking trails to cultural centres and unique accommodation options.
And although the winter wonders are well-documented here, the sometimes overlooked summer months provide amazing opportunities to see incredible scenery and enjoy outdoor activities, all while basking in the never-ending light of the midnight sun.
Whether you visit for Christmas or in the middle of summer, Lapland will provide an excellent variety of things to do. Below, we’ve collated a list of some of the best.
