The 13 Best Korouoma Canyon Trips from Rovaniemi

13 tours

Korouoma is a fault-line gorge two hours north-east where the waterfalls freeze in place and turn pale blue, and the walk down to them takes real boots. These 13 day trips handle the drive, the crampons and the sausages over a fire at the bottom. Entries note the total day length, the hiking distance and which trips include the extra loop to the frozen falls at Jaska.

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 1,489 reviews · 7 hours · from $136Our pick

Guided hike into Korouoma Canyon for Europe’s frozen waterfalls, then warm up by an Arctic campfire snack on a small group tour from Rovaniemi.

“It was amazing. The canyon is so so beautiful! During the walk you go up and down. We were allowed to use the ice slide twice that was next to the path. Super fun. Despite the -20 degrees, you warm up in no time. At the BBQ you get tea or hot chocolate. In addition, a Finnish sausage with potato bread. Real cozy. The way back after the BBQ was quite tough. It’s only up, so be ready for a steep hike! We didn’t take a lot of breaks, so we went up quite fast. New record. 😮‍💨😂”

Hike Korouoma Canyon’s frozen waterfalls from Rovaniemi, then warm up with an open-fire BBQ and hot drinks in a small group tour.

“This is a 5 km or 3.2 mile hike through the canyon, walking in the winter wonderland and seeing 3 frozen waterfalls. The company provides overalls and crampons (spikes) for the feet which really kept us from slipping on the snowy paths. Our guide, Walter, was fun and informative, taking great care of the group. He was dedicated to taking great photos at different angles of everyone in the group in iconic viewpoints. He also carried hot water to make cocoa in the middle of our hike and cooked sausages for us during the bbq time. Met some great people. I highly recommend this tour!Read more”

Small group hike in Korouoma National Park for frozen waterfalls, cozy BBQ and warm drinks, with pickup in Rovaniemi.

“We took a tour of the waterfalls on Nov 20, 2025. The waterfalls were beautiful. Unfortunately, I can't remember the name of our tour guide, but he was extremely patient, helpful, courteous and knowledgeable! I believe it was his first time leading a waterfall tour. He did a great job!!! I'd like to thank him for being very patient with us while we were walking up steep inclines. I had to pause a few times and he waited patiently each time. Seeing the waterfalls is well worth the walk.”

Join a small-group Korouoma Canyon winter hike for three frozen waterfalls, open-fire BBQ lunch, and pro edited photos, with hotel pickup.

“A well-organized trip courtesy Beyond Arctic. Beyond Arctic provides very durable and warm overalls, gloves, shoes and spikes for the hike. The drive to the location is around 1.5 hours and in a comfortable van. Our guide Aleksi was polite and a lot of fun! As for the hike itself, it was the highlight of our trip and a must-do for any visitors to Rovaniemi. The hike is mostly easy with some strenuous uphills (esp that last stretch) but the scenery and waterfalls make up for some of the tiring bits. We also had a nice BBQ towards the end of the hike. Overall, a 10/10 and a must-do if…”

“There were 4 of us on our tour. Our tour guide Malcom (aka ‘Malc’) was friendly and seemed very knowledgeable about Northern Lights. Unfortunately, Malc was clearly not very experienced in the Korouoma Waterfalls tour that we were doing. He entered the incorrect destination address into his GPS and drove for another 1.5 hours beyond where we were due to stop. With only 4 hours of daylight in Rovaniemi at this time of year, we had wasted precious daylight hours with that error. Malc was apologetic and promised to get us to the waterfalls and ‘make up for it’ albeit a little dark. Not 2km down the road, we then…”

“This was definitely my favourite tour of my Rovaniemi trip! Everything went as expected, and even better. We were lucky to have the most amazing weather that day: clear skies and sunshine, which made the experience even more special. The driver/guide could have been a bit friendlier, but that may just come down to cultural differences. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and one I’d highly recommend!”

Guided Korouoma frozen waterfall hike from Rovaniemi with hotel pickup, small-group access, and Lappish barbecue lunch.

“One of the best tours on our Lapland trip. We are so glad we went with this instead of some huge company. It was just me and my boyfriend and Aleksei told us, he is just starting his own venture as a tour guide and you could really feel how passionate he is. Since we started a bit earlier than most groups, we had the trail to ourselves. The hike itself is easy to do and leads through beautiful nature. A highlight was the campfire on the way back with Finnish sausages and marshmallows. We even learned how to start a campfire ourselves with just a knife. The drone shots…”
