Summer in Lapland is intense, as the sun never sets between mid-May and early August. Don’t worry, that doesn’t mean scorching heat: the weather is perfect for hiking in the fells, day and night if you wish. The summer season ends with ruska, the autumnal burst of foliage colours. This is the most popular time for hiking, but there are plenty of other experiences and activities to choose from as well!

The king crab is a Northern delicacy, unique in flavour and appearance. These giants are harvested from the Arctic Ocean in Norway, and this is your opportunity to catch your dinner!

Speed, excitement, exercise, and serene surroundings ؘ– the rivers of Lapland have it all. Join a boat crew on one of our white-water rafting trips and experience it for yourself!

Would you like to explore the rivers of Utsjoki, but prefer a stately cruise? We also provide serene outings with all the sights and none of the splashes of rafting.

Utsjoki is a region of dreams for true anglers, but also a great spot to get started in this regal sport. The local streams teem with trout, grayling, arctic char, and many other species.

Travel back to a simpler time by taking a small boat to a good spot, slowly but surely. Then just cast your bait and wait. At the end of the day, it’s not about the catch, it’s the time to yourself that matters.

Would you like to paddle calmly on serene waters or throw caution to the wind and take your kayak straight down the rapids? You can do both with us. You can also rent canoes for your own camping trips and explore the pristine nature of Utsjoki.

Lapland’s mushrooms and berries bask in the Midnight Sun of the summer months, making them some of the most delicious and vitamin-packed in the world. You are free to pick them on your own, but a local guide will help you make the most of your day.

All-terrain vehicles can take you across diverse terrain and allow you to see Lapland’s nature in a totally different light compared to the winter months. We provide ATV safaris of various lengths – Aurora hunting is also an option in autumn.

In Utsjoki, you can travel back in time by simply stepping foot into the pure, ancient landscape. Walking in solitude among these colossal landscapes is a treat even for the most seasoned hikers, but no previous experience is required, either. The Kaldoaivi Wilderness and Kevo Strict Nature Reserve are the crown jewels of the region.

Many adventures await you under the Midnight Sun. You can admire the bright magical nights on foot, bike, or ATV and follow the sun to your heart’s content. We can also help organise any other excursions that come to mind.

Utsjoki is an excellent base for visiting Norway while you are in the North. You can conveniently collect a rental car at the Ivalo or Kirkenes Airport and have our staff help you organise an unforgettable road trip.

The nature around Utsjoki is unique, and this applies to birdlife as well. The multiple habitats in the region include wilderness, fells, and wetlands as well as the Arctic Ocean. Thanks to the Gulf Stream, they are home to a plethora of rare bird species, from eagles to waders and resident to migratory birds.
