Late Winter at Apukka Resort, Lapland
1.3.-4.4.2027
Lapland’s most unforgettable escape under the Northern Lights in Rovaniemi, Lapland. From glass-roofed igloos to reindeer rides through snowy forests, Apukka Resort brings your Arctic dreams to life — all in one breathtaking location on the Arctic Circle. Our exclusive activities and private routes create memories you and your loved ones will cherish forever.
From March to early April, Lapland shines with deep snow, bright sunshine, and daytime temperatures around -5 °C (23 °F) — perfect for winter adventures. As night falls, the Northern Lights often dance across the sky, making this one of the most magical seasons to visit.
The Most Spectacular Auroras of the Winter
Late winter is one of the best times to witness the Northern Lights, with activity peaking around the spring equinox at the end of March. At Apukka Resort Rovaniemi, some of the most mesmerizing Auroras have danced across the skies during these months — and you can marvel at them from the comfort of our glass igloos or venture out on our unforgettable Northern Lights tours for a front-row seat to nature’s greatest show.
Sunny and Snowy Adventures
After the long, dark polar night, the sun returns and late winter becomes the brightest time of the winter. By March, Lapland enjoys more than 12 hours of daylight, with sunshine sparkling on the snowy landscape. The deep winter snow has turned into a strong, shiny layer called hankikanto—“the snow that carries”—so you can easily walk or sled on top of it. These perfect snowy conditions last well into April, offering endless opportunities for winter adventures.
We've made everything ready for you
Our holiday packages make planning easy and carefree. Picture yourself joining exciting winter adventures, spending the night in a stunning glass igloo under the Arctic sky, and enjoying a delicious buffet breakfast each morning. From the moment you arrive at Rovaniemi Airport, we’ll take care of everything. And if you’d like to add extra activities or meals, that’s possible too!
