The excursion to Riisintunturi/Korouoma was wonderful! The only agency that allows you to see both places in the same day. The transport was on time at the appointed time a few days before. Also appreciated the barbecue among the trees of Korouoma. Everything perfect, A special thanks to our guide Atanas who was the best. Super recommended!

Truly recommend Riisitunturi hiking during your stay in Rovaniemi. I can tell that it is the most stunning sunrise I have seen in my life. The scenery was breathtaking! The course was easy and no special gear needed. Tour guide Vess is super informative and you’ll never get bored during hiking. You’ll never regret to add Riisitunturi hiking in your Korouoma Waterfall itinerary.

Well above my expectations as my partner is usually very cold blooded person and hardly stands the cold weather. After few months of negotiation finally we went to visit Finland and the waterfalls were one of the best experiences that we had in ten days. Highly recommended, even the cold weather is not so frightening when well layered up.
