5.00Very nice day with -20 degrees and blue sky. Even the slightly longer drive is definitely worth it for a few hours around the beautiful countryside. Super friendly and nice guide who, together with the other two guests, gave us a wonderful experience. Not a super long round trip of almost 6 km, but nice with a varied path up and down. Good food later with a bonfire by a frozen lake nearby. Beautifully beautiful!
Good Day out

5.00Our guide Utsav was fantastic! He was knowledgeable & very accommodating to our needs. He introduced the various attractions and the various faunas in the park. He also bought us to a few hidden spots to take nice pictures of the waterfall. The finale had to be the BBQ lunch. He prepared fire and whipped up a sumptuous meal with drinks to end the walk on a high. Highly recommended!

5.00We enjoyed the trip very much. We had not much experience with snowshoes but it was not too hard for us and the views of the natural scenery of the national park of the Korouoma Canyon were really beautiful, including the three frozen waterfalls. It was not crowded at all and it was a nice sunny day when we did the trip, and especially warm for winter and with the special clothes. The guide was very kind and did lots of nice picture of us :) Lunch was also good and adequate. The only "but" is that it was a long trip between Rovaniemi and the national park by car (around 3 hours round trip). Thank you very much for this wonderful experience!
Invigorating experience

5.00I snowshoed for the first time today and it isn't difficult at all. Our guide, Jan, had good energy and was awesome. We did the entire loop in the canyon and he offered to take our photos at each stop. He takes care of his people! This tour is awesome. A fairly good workout in an absolutely beautiful forest!
