Early Winter Tours in November
In Rovaniemi, Lapland
November in Rovaniemi and Apukka Resort is all about Christmas, early winter vibes, and a touch of snow. Temperatures are dropping below zero, snow is falling now and then, and lakes get their ice cover. Yet, it’s not the real winter, as all snow might be gone the next day, and autumn does a comeback.
Early winter activities on SNOW
10th November - 30th November
November is the beginning of winter, so the amount of snow is uncertain in Rovaniemi and Lapland. For this reason, Apukka Resort & Apukka Adventures is prepared to operate early winter experiences on stored and cannoned snow starting at the latest 10th November.
November is already the Aurora Borealis season, and as soon as the sky is clear, there are good chances to spot the mythical Northern Lights in the sky above us.
In our November tours, you’ll find our most popular animals well-represented. Choose from a variety of tours featuring huskies, reindeer, and horses, offering an authentic taste of Lappish life. For thrill-seekers, our snowmobiling tours deliver exhilarating fun, even on shorter routes.
And don’t forget our sauna experiences – a sauna and outdoor jacuzzi for the ultimate relaxation, and a wood-heated sauna with an Arctic plunge for the adventurous.
All our activities launch from Apukka Resort, situated at Tutkijantie 28, 96900 Rovaniemi, and unfold within exclusive private lands.
