Lapland Christmas Holidays

Young or old, there is nothing quite as magical as visiting Lapland at this special time of year. Snow covers the ground in a thick glistening blanket, the treetops are dusted in soft white powder, and the warm glow of roaring fires emanates through the windows of log cabins. Children will absolutely love our Lapland Christmas holidays, getting the chance to visit Santa Claus at his home and being left with lasting memories to cherish for a lifetime. Adults can reclaim that feeling of childhood wonderment, meeting the reindeer that the indigenous people rely so heavily upon. Lapland Christmas holidays can be utterly romantic, with tours to see the breathtaking Northern Lights and inviting saunas to warm up in after a day in the great outdoors. Or they can be truly exciting, with exhilarating snowmobile rides over the snowy fells of Lapland. Take a look at our selection of Lapland Christmas holidays and choose your favourite.

Holidays to Lapland at Christmas

There is no better way to get into the festive spirit than spending a winter break in Lapland. Spanning the countries of Finland and Sweden high above the Arctic Circle, the temperatures rarely reach above zero on Lapland Christmas holidays. Inside your cosy log cabin however, a roaring fire will keep you toasty warm, and most cabins and hotels have private saunas that you can use. During Lapland Christmas holidays you can take part in plenty of outdoor winter pursuits. Try the ancient art of snowshoeing or see if can you catch anything ice fishing in the frozen lakes. For something more exhilarating on Lapland Christmas holidays, take a snowmobile out into the countryside, or ‘mush’ your own pack of eager husky dogs on a sled ride across snowy plains. Discover the Samí way of life when you learn how these indigenous people cope in such extreme climates, and perhaps purchase some hand crafted souvenirs to give as Christmas present for friends and family back home. The fact that the amazing Aurora Borealis could make an appearance at any time only adds to the excitement of Lapland Christmas holidays. Being north of the Arctic Circle, you will be in a prime location for witnessing these breathtaking phenomena, and given a clear night, you could see the colourful spectacle of the Northern Lights dancing across the stars in the dark night sky.
