What To Expect
Riisitunturi is a national park located 150 kilometres east of Rovaniemi in a hilly area of Finnish Lapland. Riisitunturi is famous for having beautiful photogenic scenery with majestic snowy trees.

Your guide will pick you up in the morning and drive you 2 hours from Rovaniemi through the Arctic wilderness.
