Aurora Ice Floating in Rovaniemi

Summary

Begin your ice-floating experience with pickup at your Rovanieni hotel; alternatively, meet up at the centrally-located tour office in town.  Board your tour transport and head out of town, bound for a frozen lake deep in the Finnish wilderness. Once you arrive, you'll be outfitted with a special dry suit that keeps you warm despite floating in near-freezing lake water. With the help of your buoyant dry suit, lie back and relax, floating among chunks of ice as you watch the Aurora Borealis flicker above. Being this far out in the open landscape, far from any light pollution, gives the best chance of seeing this natural phenomenon.  Climb out and warm up with a hot drink, then board your transportation and return to Rovaniemi.
