Activity description

Climb to the highest points of Rovaniemi by ATV (quad) to enjoy the Midnight Sun firsthand in Lapland!

Rovaniemi is the largest city of the magical Lapland region, situated in northern Finland. During the summer, the unique wilderness of Rovaniemi comes alive with distinct rockfaces, forest trails and lakes. The vast terrain is perfect for riding these quad bikes! At this time of year, the Midnight Sun's golden hour is prominent, during which daylight is redder and softer than when the sun is higher in the sky.

The excursion begins at the meeting point in Rovaniemi (pickup is available within a 15km driving distance). There, you will meet your qualified guide, who will teach you how to ride an ATV (quad bike) and give you safety instructions. You have the choice to ride in pairs (twin riding), with one driver and one passenger and the opportunity to switch halfway, or by yourself as the driver (solo riding). Once you have all of your equipment and are set up on the bike, the adventure begins!

Under the instruction from the guide, you will set off driving the bike into the Arctic forest. As the sun slips just beyond the horizon, the sky illuminates at midnight for a few magic moments before the sun rises again. This natural phenomenon is a once-in-a-lifetime sight to experience! The sun will peek through the trees, creating a beautiful and peaceful atmosphere as you drive through the stunning natural scenery. 

Once you get used to driving these vehicles, your guide will lead you up a hill where you will stop and enjoy a breathtaking view over Lapland. At this time, the moose native to the area are the most active, so you may spot some of them if you are lucky! There you will take a break to enjoy some fresh Finnish blueberry juice and delicious traditional gingerbread snacks. After the break, we will drive back downhill and through the magical forests of Lapland, before returning to Rovaniemi.

This enjoyable quad bike excursion through the Lappish nature is a great way to experience the mystical Midnight Sun and awe-inspiring sunset of the Arctic summer. Book this unforgettable adventure from Rovaniemi now!
