Explore Our Experiences


At Saariniemi Estate, every moment is shaped by nature, tradition, and authenticity. Whether you're seeking peaceful encounters with Arctic wilderness or hands-on heritage, we welcome you to explore Lapland your way


Here's what we offer:

Venture onto the frozen lake to discover the secrets of traditional Finnish net fishing – a rare, hands-on Arctic experience. Try your luck with a rod or join our net fishing days for something truly unique.


Step into our warm log house and learn age-old skills like baking kampanisus or felting wool from our own sheep. Each workshop includes delicious food, storytelling, and a relaxed, meaningful atmosphere.


Experience the gentle power of nature and the calm rhythm of farm life. Quiet moments with our sheep, peaceful forest walks, and hands-on tasks soothe the mind and root you in the present. This experience is based on Green Care principles and is suitable for all ages – in nature, there's space to breathe and simply be.


Enjoy Lappish home-cooked meals served at our long table in a historic 1904 log home. A warm, candlelit moment to savor – with menu options or tailor-made dishes.


Heat up our 1860s lakeside sauna, plunge into fresh snow or the clean waters of Lake Vanttausjärvi, and feel renewed. A must-do for every visitor to Finland.


Stroll across the frozen lake beneath starry Arctic skies, kindle a fire, and listen to the silence. A moment of connection with nature, guided and safe.


Experience an unforgettable Arctic Christmas with traditional meals, warmth, and optional visits from Santa. Celebrate in the heart of winter magic.
