Rovaniemi

Rovaniemi

Rovaniemi is the modern capital of Lapland, a lively centre of administration, tourism, commerce and education. The majority of its 35,000 inhabitants make their living in service professions. The tourist is thus well aware of the warm heartedness of these northern people. Lapland is a land of contrasts: the winter darkness and midnight sun, untamed countryside and busy towns, tradition and the modern era. Rovaniemi has always been Lapland’s focal centre, a place to meet friends and to have a good time.

Welcome. We have a lot to offer you. Rovaniemi alone is a fully developed holiday destination in its own right - whatever the season - and a natural part of any visit to Lapland.

Be prepared for surprises: the town’s modern image, comprehensive services, and the wilds of Lapland which extend almost to the city centre! Rovaniemi is beyond compare in the Arctic world.
