After the ride, go on to a frozen lake for an exciting activity in the Arctic - Snowmobiling. Drive across the sparkling white landscapes and feel the fresh air of Finnish Lapland.

You will be taken to one of the best places for ice fishing on the frozen lake. Arctic char, rainbow trout, whitefish, and Arctic fish can be caught in this area. Drill the hole in the ice using a special equipment, and start fishing in the middle of the splendid nature. Wait for the fish as you sit down with your neighbors, and enjoy the scenery in a peaceful tranquility.

After the fishing, warm yourself by gathering around the bonfire on the snow. You will learn how to make a delicious smoked salmon in the open fire.
