Spend your Christmas holiday in magical Lapland and enjoy the best of our winter activities with your family!

Wake up Santa is our most loved family Christmas holiday and the reason is quite simple: it is all about the perfect Christmas and Santa experience for both children and adults. 

Meet all of our four legged friends, some of them with antlers and some with cuddly and fluffy fur. A day spent with reindeer and huskies is one to remember! 

Experience the snow in many fun ways. Test your skills at snowshoeing, cross country skiing and zoom down the toboggan slope. Best way to experience wintry fairytale forest is with a joyful snowmobile ride. 

The highlight is when you are whisked off in to the forest in search of Santa’s secret hide out…
