About the activity

If you're looking for a half-day adventure in the wilderness of Finnish Lapland, this wonderful ice fishing excursion by snowmobile and sleigh on the Ivalo River from Ivalo is perfect for you! Located in northeastern Finland, Ivalo is surrounded by incredible Arctic landscapes. When you visit, you'll have the opportunity to spot beautiful pine forests and wildlife such as reindeer, foxes, and rabbits running around. With snowy winters and beautiful natural landscapes all around, this amazing village is ideal for experiencing everything that the Arctic winter has to offer.

On the day of your ice fishing excursion by snowmobile and sleigh on the Ivalo River, your instructor offers a transportation service from various locations around Ivalo (please check special terms). You can also arrive at the Northern Lights Riders headquarters by yourself. Once there, your instructor will distribute the thermal overalls, shoes, gloves, and balaclavas, so you can gear up. When you're ready, your instructor will give you a thorough safety briefing and teach you exactly how to drive a snowmobile over the snow, or show you to the sleigh that can take you around the snowy landscapes of Finnish Lapland.

Once you feel prepared, it's time to go! You'll drive over to the Ivalo River and toward a special fishing spot chosen by your instructor based on their extensive knowledge of the area and its fishing patterns. When you get there, your instructor will distribute the fishing rods, lines, and bait, and teach you how to use the auger to drill a hole in the ice to put your line through. As you relax in the peaceful Arctic surroundings of Ivalo, you'll fish for pike, perch, whitefish, or grayling, which are the most common species in the region. As you wait for the fish to bite, you'll help your instructor build a bonfire and then heat up some drinks and snacks to keep you warm.

Keep in mind that temperatures in the Arctic can range from 5 to -30 degrees Celsius, so to prepare for this wonderful ice fishing excursion by snowmobile and sleigh from Ivalo, your instructor recommends bringing wool or thermal under layers, good middle layers, and a winter jacket that you can wear under the thermal suit if it's very cold. Snowmobile drivers should also bring a physical copy of their driver's license.

Immerse yourself in the incredible landscapes of Finnish Lapland and discover an ancient Arctic tradition with an expert. Book your ice fishing excursion by snowmobile and sleigh on the Ivalo River from Ivalo today!
