Finland Fishing Charters & Fishing Trips

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!

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
