The guides were amazing and supportive and great to have a chat with! The hike to the frozen waterfall was breathtaking (literally) and was an incredible experience climbing up to the top of the waterfall. 10/10 would recommend

We had a great time with Sampo in Korouoma with nice climbing on the Mammuti icefall! We enjoyed it so much that we booked another ice climbing tour with Sampo in Pyhä to work more on our technique and to be able to climb even more. :) We both now are a great fan of ice climbing and will come back for sure! :) Kiitos paljon!
Great experience

Our trip with Thya was fantastic. It was the best day of our week! Me (56 years) and my son felt very safe. It’s not hard when you follow the instructions. The beaty of the waterfall is so wonderful. And we were allowed to climb it ! Thank you so much for this great experience.
Excellent experience, a 10.

I took part in this activity as part of a 3 day tour with Much Better Adventures. This was the highlight of the tour. The snowy landscape was beautiful on the way to the canyon where the guides installed the equipment in advance. Ice-climbing was fun and challenging! Our guides Tiina, Yepe and Max (+another one whose name I forgot) were patient, went above and beyond to ensure we were safe and enjoyed our time. Lunch was taken on the way back around a fire set up by the guides. Among the other activities offered by Bliss, I’d highly recommend E-biking and the evening at the sauna.
Jeppe was an amazing guide!

Our guide Jeppe was patient, kind, knowledgeable, and charismatic, everything you want in a guide! The hike to the falls was easy, but the hike up the waterfall was very difficult- not for the faint of heart, but doable. Ice climbing was very fun to try! The hike out of the canyon was grueling, but the stop at the fire and meal were perfect! The extra gear kept us happy too!
Once in a lifetime 10/10 experience

Ice climbing was fun. But Art (Arthur) made the experience feel sublime beyond the activity itself. His sensitive and delicate approach towards nature, ice, and climbing is admirable and contagious. He's super considerate and with you every step of the way + went above and beyond. Would repeat any other activity with Art.
