A holiday to Lapland is the ultimate Christmas present. This is one place in the world that little ones can spend time with Santa Claus on his home turf. Lapland is located in northernmost Finland, deep inside the arctic circle. Known as Santa Claus’ homeland, this country dishes up the stuff of fairy tales – like snow-dusted forests, cosy log cabins, and a population that’s made up of more reindeer than people.
Lapland pulls out all the stops over the festive period, so there’s nowhere better to get into the Christmas spirit.
Santa and his elves are just half the story. Lapland’s snowy countryside was made for exploring and, wherever you stay, winter sports like snowmobiling are as easy to come by as Christmassy activities. Each resort has a different vibe too, so whether you’re after an action-packed getaway or a relaxing retreat, you’ll find somewhere that suits.
