The line of the northern polar circle

But also in the local village you can cross the northern polar circle. There is a marked line here. Anyone who has crossed the line will be issued a separate certificate for this on request. After all, special experiences need a memento.

This is also possible, the Arctic Circle Husky Park is also located in the Christmas Village in Rovaniemi. Let yourself be pulled by real Siberian huskies and get to know the natural environment of Finland, which is characterized by ice and snow. The Husky Park is open all year round. In summer tours with the dogs are offered. A winter safari with the huskies has of course its very own charm. Which many a man can’t do without either. If you want to experience the real Finnish winter, then Christmas House Safaris are just right for you. The Ranua Wildlife Park also offers a Northern Lights Safari to collect unforgettable impressions.
More about the creation of Santa Claus Village
It was Rovaniemi in Finnish Lapland that was awakened from its Sleeping Beauty slumber in 1985, because in that year an area was created that was entirely dedicated to the Christmas joys of the people. And so a Santa Claus place was built, where Santa Claus and his wife can be met personally all year round and where the atmosphere of Christmas is in the air all year round. The result is a park that could not be more beautiful for Christmas friends. But if you are not a big fan of Christmas now, you can still cross the line of the Arctic Circle or go on a Husky Safari.
Address your Christmas wishes directly to Santa Claus
If chance would have it, every visitor can meet Santa Claus personally. He is often out and about with his reindeer. If you are travelling with children, don’t miss the opportunity to visit the Santa Claus office, where you are sure to meet the man with the white beard. If you cannot travel to Finland during the pre-Christmas period, you can still send mail for Santa Claus. The address for this is:
