Discover a hidden island retreat in the heart of Finnish Lapland, where a traditional sauna, fresh local flavors, and the peaceful beauty of the Ounasjoki River come together to create the perfect summer escape.

Just beyond the city of Rovaniemi lies a secluded private island accessible only by boat. Surrounded by sandy riverbanks, small islands, and clear Arctic waters, this peaceful destination offers a glimpse into the slower rhythm of summer life in Lapland.

Your journey begins with a scenic boat ride through the winding channels of the Ounasjoki Archipelago. As the city fades behind you, the landscape transforms into a world of quiet waterways, untouched beaches, and endless summer skies. The boat journey itself is part of the experience, revealing a side of Rovaniemi that remains hidden from most visitors.

Upon arrival, you are free to enjoy the island at your own pace.

Spend time exploring the sandy shores shaped by the Arctic river, take a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters, or simply relax and listen to the sounds of nature. The island invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and experience the simplicity that defines a Finnish summer day.

At the heart of the experience is a traditional Finnish sauna. Step into the comforting warmth of this cherished Nordic tradition before cooling off with a swim in the river. For generations, Finns have embraced the combination of sauna and nature as one of life’s simplest pleasures.

For those looking to explore further, SUP boards are available for a peaceful paddle around the island and its surrounding waterways.

A highlight of the experience is the 3-course island lunch, served in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Inspired by local ingredients and the flavors of Lapland, the meal offers a taste of the region while you enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding river scenery.

The combination of sauna, swimming, local food, and untouched nature creates an experience that captures the true essence of summer in Rovaniemi.

As the afternoon draws to a close, your boat transfer returns through the tranquil river channels, bringing you back to the city refreshed, relaxed, and connected to the natural beauty of Finnish Lapland.
