For sports enthusiasts the snowmobile excursions, snowgolf, and Snowshoeing may appeal. On the other hand, for those who want to see the full scenic value of the area winter driving, fishing, and the Northern lights may appeal as well as a bath in the outdoor thermal springs that allow you to soak under the falling snow.
Additionally, for families the winter activities, reindeer safaris, dog-sled safaris, and Kumpare Kindgarden may appeal. There are also a wide variety of shops and restaurants that will make your stay enjoyable and full. In the evenings the Finns know how to enjoy themselves, and although not a thumping lively après ski resort, they know how to enjoy themselves. Recommended is the Ski Bistro at Hotel Rantasipi.
