Christmas at Saariniemi

Celebrate a Traditional Finnish Christmas with candlelight, sauna and a visit from Santa

At Saariniemi Estate, Christmas is quiet, heartfelt, and full of tradition. Snow blankets the forest, lanterns flicker in the windows, and the scent of fresh-baked pastries fills the air.

Enjoy a private visit with Santa Claus himself – a warm and personal moment for families, couples, or friends. After meeting Santa, you'll gather around the long wooden table in our historic log house for a traditional Lappish Christmas meal, featuring local flavors, stories, and candlelight.

Step into our lakeside sauna, take a walk under the stars, or simply slow down and soak in the peaceful atmosphere.

This experience is always tailored to your wishes and to the rhythm of the season. Available for private groups during December and early January.

Let the true spirit of Christmas find you – at Saariniemi.
