Rovaniemi: Korouoma Canyon & Frozen Waterfalls Tour ⭐ Korouoma Premium | 7h | Small Group | BBQ & Photos

Discover Korouoma Canyon's spectacular frozen waterfalls and towering walls of ice. Hike through dramatic Arctic scenery and experience one of Lapland's most breathtaking winter sights.
Discover the spectacular frozen waterfalls of Korouoma Canyon and step into one of Lapland's most dramatic winter landscapes. Towering cliffs, snowy forests and enormous walls of ice create an Arctic world that feels far removed from the busy streets of Rovaniemi.

This experience was created by Arctic Safari Guides founder Timo, who grew up in Posio—the municipality where Korouoma Canyon is located. This connection to the region brings genuine local knowledge into the experience, from stories about life in Lapland to Arctic nature, wildlife and the history of the area.

Your journey begins in Rovaniemi and continues through forests, frozen landscapes and small villages towards Korouoma Nature Reserve. The drive itself offers a glimpse into the quieter side of Finnish Lapland before you arrive at the canyon.

Follow your guide down into Korouoma and experience the landscape from within. During winter, water freezing along the steep rock walls creates enormous ice formations and spectacular frozen waterfalls. See famous waterfalls such as Ruskea Virta and Mammutti and discover why Korouoma attracts winter travelers, photographers and ice climbers from around the world.

Take time to admire the walls of ice, photograph the scenery and experience the silence of the Arctic wilderness.
