Lapland´s 8 seasons of the year
Did you know that Lapland actually has 8 seasons? Each season has its own special features and nature changes its appearance and form from colourful to white. Do you love bright summer nights, frozen lakes, a pallet of autumn colours, wonderful nature, northern lights, a sky full of millions of stars, snowy winter or peace and quiet? At Ranua, you can experience all of these, no matter what time of the year you are on the move.
The nightless nights in the summer enchant with their brightness and you can enjoy nature and be outside all night long. A boat trip on a calm lake, a hike in the nature or a nighttime swim trip feel completely different when done at night.
Colourful autumn season is the most wonderful play of colours that everyone should experience. The trees glow yellow, orange, and red and the landscape changes its shape again before the arrival of winter.
We think everyone should see the northern lights at least once in their life! Thanks to our location, Ranua offers the best setting for this. Northern lights typically glow in shades of green, but there are also purple ones.
When the permanent snow comes, you can enjoy winter activities; skiing, snowmobiling, husky safaris, reindeer rides or even snowshoeing.
Christmas time in Lapland is full of atmosphere and, according to many, the best time. Christmas carols, Santa Claus with his elves and reindeer is an experience for the whole family.
