Asking for Ahti’s treats

In prehistoric Finland, fishing was the main livelihood. Now you can experience how good of a fisherperson you are!

The activity starts with putting on snowshoes, heading to the frozen river and drilling a hole in the ice. While waiting for the fish to bite you will hear how the locals live here and what fishing really means for Finnish people. You will also learn about Ahti, the god or possessor of water in Finnish folklore and ancient religion. While warming up by an open fire, you get to enjoy hot juice and treats! Pick up and drop off is included to this activity.
