Canoeing is the perfect and most relaxing way to discover Lapland in summer while respecting its untouched nature.

Itinerary
During this activity, your qualified canoe guide will take you away from Rovaniemi, on a peaceful lake or a river. They will teach you the basic techniques on how to canoe and will provide you with all the safety instructions needed. You will be explained how to use the paddles, how to move on water and steer your canoe, how to react if capsizing, etc. Your guide will always keep an eye on you, and will come to your aid if you are in need of help.
While paddling, you will feel the peacefulness of the nature surrounding you and enjoy a complete different perspective of Lapland!
