Lapland offers a mix of natural beauty and cultural experiences, with vast forests, swamps, and gently sloping fells. It’s a prime location for Nordic skiing, trekking, and hiking, especially in areas like the Oulanka and Pyhä-Luosto National Parks. Winter is popular for skiing and the Aurora Borealis, while the summer brings the Midnight Sun to Rovaniemi.
Key attractions include the Siida Museum in Inari, where visitors can learn about the Sámi people and the region’s ecology, and the Arktikum Museum in Rovaniemi, which explores both Sámi culture and the Arctic. Rovaniemi is also home to the Santa Claus Village, a year-round Christmas destination with Arctic activities.
