Visit Santa and chat with him 🎄

Wandering around the village and the souvenir shops 🎁

Try the best salmon at Santa’s Salmon Place 🍽️
Time for lunch? Head over to Santa’s Salmon Place for an amazing break. Settle down in this tipi restaurant and let yourself be tempted by their specialty: delicious salmon, roasted over an open fire. The smoky flavor, the warmth of the fire, and the cozy atmosphere make it an unforgettable culinary experience. A true delight for your taste buds!
Send a postcard from the official post office of the Santa Claus village ✉️
Continue your adventure by visiting the official post office of the Santa Claus village. Here, you can send a special card to your family or friends, complete with a unique stamp from the Arctic Circle. It's a great way to share a piece of this magic with those who couldn’t join you.
Cross the Arctic Circle on foot ❄️
Symbolically walk over this invisible line that marks the gateway to the Far North. As a bonus, there's a webcam nearby that streams live footage on YouTube; don't forget to call your loved ones and wave to them via the webcam!
Have fun at Snowman World ⛄

Slide down the ice slides, admire the snow sculptures, and enjoy the many activities that will delight both kids and adults. It's the perfect place to unwind and get swept away by the magic of winter.
End the day with a visit to the Mrs. Claus 🎅🤶
To wrap up this magical day, you must also visit Mrs. Claus. She's just as welcoming as her husband and loves to share stories about life in Lapland. Her kindness and warm presence will make you feel right at home.
