Step into the magical Arctic night and discover one of Lapland’s oldest winter traditions: evening burbot ice fishing. This 4-hour experience takes place at our private basecamp on Lake Niesikivalo, reached by a scenic drive and a short snowmobile sleigh transfer. Burbot — made in Finnish — becomes most active in midwinter evenings, and local fishermen have long headed onto the ice at dusk with simple rods, bait, and patience. Your guide will share the stories and techniques of this northern tradition before helping you drill your fishing holes. You can fish outdoors under the starry Arctic sky or inside a heated Lappish tepee set directly on the frozen lake, illuminated by the warm glow of a campfire. Hot drinks and light snacks are provided throughout the evening to keep you comfortable. With no light pollution and wide-open views, Niesikivalo offers excellent chances to see the Northern Lights dancing. This tour delivers an authentic, atmospheric Arctic moment you will never forget

We will travel 20 minutes from Rovaniemi by minivan and take a short walk to reach the lake. The location is our own private place away from the crowds in the middle of the peaceful nature. The main activity is of course fishing itself, but the frozen lake also offers an ideal setting for landscape and wildlife photos. Once we reach the lake, we will teach you the basics of ice fishing and enjoy a pleasant afternoon fishing and photographing. We will also set up a campfire in traditional Lappish Teepee and enjoy some hot drinks and snacks – and of course fry our catch of the day!

How to catch fish when it’s hiding under a one-meter layer of ice? You will learn that and much more, as we take you ice fishing on a frozen lake amidst beautiful winter scenery. This experience starts at our meeting point in Levi to get all the equipment for ice fishing. After, we travel around 20 minutes to reach the ice-covered lake. Then it is all about fishing! We walk on top of the lake on a thick layer of ice and find the best spots for the day. The main activity is of course ice fishing itself, but the frozen lake offers also an ideal setting for landscape and wildlife photos. We will also set up a campfire and enjoy some hot drinks and snacks – and if there is big enough catch, we can fry the fish too!
