Summer and Autumn Adventures in Finland’s Arctic Wonderland
When people think of Lapland, the first images that come to mind are snowy landscapes, Santa Claus, and the Northern Lights. But Lapland in summertime and autumn offers a completely different—yet equally magical—experience. From the golden glow of the midnight sun to the vibrant colors of “ruska” (autumn foliage), the region is a playground for nature lovers, adventurers, and anyone seeking peace in pristine wilderness. These activities are at their best from June to early October, when the weather is mild and the landscapes are alive with color and light.
