Meet Rovaniemi
Pack your warmest clothes and get ready to explore Rovaniemi, the official hometown of Santa Claus! Surrounded by snow-covered landscapes in the high North of Finnish Lapland, the city is located six kilometres south of the Arctic Circle. It is not only the perfect place to make acquaintance with new arctic friends like huskies or reindeer – thanks to its favourable location, the chances to catch sight of the mysterious Northern Lights are extraordinarily high. But Rovaniemi does not only offer spectacular nature: fun theme parks and the Arktikum museum offer entertainment for both young and old. Embrace the ultimate Lapland experience and meet Rovaniemi.
