Pallas Yullastunturi
Oy Levi Ski Resort
Santa Claus Village
I suggest booking a time for Santa meeting in advance. I forgot to do that and ended up waiting over an hour; it was worth it but could've been better organized!
Bring your own snacks if you have dietary restrictions. The food options are limited and can be pricey. I ended up spending a lot on just a quick bite!
Explore the free activities like walking through the village and taking photos with the statues. I thought I had to pay for everything, but wandering around was a highlight.
If you're planning to buy souvenirs, check online stores for special offers. I found the same items cheaper online after my trip. I wish I’d looked before shopping!
Iso-Yllas Hiihtokeskus
I recommend checking the weather before you go. It can change fast, and knowing what to expect will help you dress appropriately and plan your day better.
If you're into skiing and snowmobiling, consider getting a combined ticket. It saved me quite a bit, and I got to enjoy both without breaking the bank!
Saariselka Ski&Sport Resort Ltd
Salla Ski Resort
My experience was so much better when I hit the slopes after 3 PM. The crowds thinned out and the snow was so much nicer!
I think the sauna at the resort is a must after a long day on the slopes. It's the perfect way to unwind, so I won't skip it next time!
If you're into snowboarding, I recommend trying the snowpark. It’s not super huge but adds a fun twist to your day!
Ounasvaara Ski Oy
Tunturiaapa Nature Trail
Hetta-Pallas Trail
Pyha Ski Resort
I think taking the time to explore the less crowded slopes can be a game-changer. I skipped the main runs and found some awesome spots with fresh powder.
If you're planning to rent gear, do it the day before to save time in the morning rush. I did this, and it really made my day smoother!
