About Lapland
Overview
Lapland is a traveler’s dream, where the Northern Lights and the midnight sun are part of everyday life. In this magical land where snow covers the landscapes for 7 months of the year, it’s no surprise that Lapland is the ideal place for dog sledding, skiing, snowmobiles and saunas. Where winter theme parks and interactive museums are open year-round and the Sami people, Europe’s only remaining indigenous people, have inhabited the area for more than 5,000 years. But more importantly, Rovaniemi is home to Santa Claus!
Disclaimer: Space is a precious commodity in Europe, especially in its most dense cities, be prepared for smaller hotel rooms. The same goes for bathrooms and elevators, don’t be surprised if they feel cozier than those in the US.
