Where else can you go across a frozen river to another country? Every year, we make routes to Sweden on the Torne River ice. Yes, it is strong and safe. The ice road carries the weight of a car! Pop in Sweden to do the groceries or just drive back and forth from village to village along the river.
Participate in an ice fishing competition with the locals! In March we have H-pilkki, an ice fishing competition that draws hundreds of fishers, and non-fishers. It takes place on the ice by the Kardis village between Pello/Kolari in Finland and Pajala in Sweden. It’s a proper open market with sales booths, grilled sausages and of course good atmosphere. Buy a raffle ticket and you might win a barrel hot tub!
Do you ski? On the Torne River ice you can cross-country ski kilometres and kilometres on well-kept tracks. Get you ski boots on and let’s go!
