Dress in layers to stay comfortable. Weather in Muonio changes quickly, so flexibility is key. Our guides at Harriniva Adventure Resort and Jeris Lakeside Resort recommend the “three-layer” rule.

The Three Layers:

Base: Wear moisture-wicking merino wool or synthetic fabrics to stay dry.

Mid: Add a fleece or wool sweater for warmth on breezy boat trips across Lake Jerisjärvi.

Outer: Use a windproof and waterproof jacket to protect against sudden Arctic showers and windy days.

Summer (June–August):
Pack T-shirts and shorts for warm days. Bring light-colored, long-sleeved clothing to protect yourself from mosquitoes during forest walks. Do not forget swimwear for Arctic Sauna World and the jacuzzi at Harriniva Adventure Resort.

Autumn (September–October):
Temperatures drop during the “Ruska” season. Pack a warm hat, gloves, and a light down jacket for Northern Lights hunting. Wear sturdy, waterproof hiking boots.
