Best of Rovaniemi — Things to Do
Rovaniemi is the official hometown of Santa Claus — and the gateway to Lapland adventure: husky and reindeer sleigh rides, snowmobile safaris and, on clear nights, the Aurora Borealis. In summer the midnight sun keeps the wilderness open around the clock.

Did you know? Rovaniemi
Rovaniemi sits exactly on the Arctic Circle (66°32'N), marked by a visible line on the ground that visitors can straddle for photos.
The city was almost entirely rebuilt after World War II, designed by Finnish architect Alvar Aalto in a reindeer-antler street pattern visible from above.
Rovaniemi is home to the official Santa Claus Village, where visitors can meet Santa year-round and send letters postmarked from the Arctic Circle.
The region experiences midnight sun from June to July and polar night (kaamos) from November to January, making winter the prime season for Northern Lights viewing.
Rovaniemi's Sámi population maintains indigenous herding traditions; you can visit working reindeer farms and learn about Sámi culture in the region.
The city's name comes from the Kemijoki River, with 'Rova' likely deriving from an old word meaning 'river bank' in Finnish.
