A local guide chooses the most promising spot of the day, drills the holes, and helps you settle in with a rod and a warm reindeer hide while you watch the clear water below. 🔑 Key Details Duration: Around 5 hours Season: September to December and February to April Minimum age: 7 years Group size: Minimum 4, maximum 8 participants Pickup: Hotels in Kiruna and Jukkasjärvi 🌟 What to Expect After hotel pickup, you travel by minibus to the fishing spot that looks best on the day. Species in the area can include Arctic charr, grayling, trout, perch and pike. Your guide starts with a short safety brief before you walk out onto the ice. Holes are pre-drilled, then you fish at your own pace with a rod and a reindeer hide to sit on. A fire is lit for warmth and a hot drink, while the guide stays close with tips. Catches are never guaranteed, but the setting and guidance make the outing memorable either way. 📍 Location The tour runs in the frozen wilderness around Kiruna in Swedish Lapland. Exact lake choice depends on conditions, ice safety and where the fishing looks strongest that morning. Pickup covers hotels in Kiruna and Jukkasjärvi, so you do not need your own vehicle for the outing. Expect a quiet Arctic landscape away from busy town streets once you leave the road. ✅ Prerequisites No fishing experience is needed. You should be comfortable spending several hours outdoors in cold winter conditions and walking short distances on snow or ice with guide support. Children aged 7 and over are welcome when accompanied as required. Bring your own warm layered clothing, sturdy winter shoes, hat, mittens and a scarf or buff. 💛 Why Choose Us The day is built around small groups, so the guide can help each guest with setup, safety and technique without rushing the pace. Equipment, fishing licence and hotel transfers are included, so you can focus on the experience itself. Meeting points and fishing locations are chosen for the conditions on the day, with an experienced Arctic guide looking after the practical side from pickup to drop-off. ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Hotel pickup and drop-off in Kiruna and Jukkasjärvi Professional guide Ice fishing equipment Fishing licence Hot drink Reindeer hide to sit on ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point if you are outside the included hotel pickup area Personal winter clothing and footwear Meals unless stated on the day Travel insurance Tips for your guide (optional) ### Kit list Warm layered winter clothing Sturdy winter shoes or boots Hat, mittens and scarf or buff Full name, nationality and address details for the fishing licence ## FAQs ### Do I need fishing experience? No. The guide shows you how the equipment works, how to fish through the ice and how to stay safe on the lake. Beginners are welcome and the pace stays calm throughout. If you have fished before, you can still pick up Arctic-specific tips and settle into the quieter rhythm of ice fishing in Lapland. ### Is a catch guaranteed? No catch is guaranteed. Your guide chooses a promising spot and helps you fish well, but weather, season and fish behaviour all play a part. Even without a catch, the morning is about time on the ice, clear water views through the hole, and a guided winter outing in Swedish Lapland. ### What fish might we see? Species known in the area include Arctic charr, grayling, trout, perch and pike. What appears on any given day depends on the lake and conditions. Your guide will explain what to look for and how to work the line once you are set up at your hole. ### What should I wear? Wear warm layers, sturdy winter shoes, a hat, mittens and a scarf or buff. You will spend long periods outdoors on the ice, so insulation matters more than style. Bring clothing you are happy to sit and move in, and keep spare gloves handy if you have them. ### Is hotel pickup included? Yes. Pickup and drop-off are included from hotels in Kiruna and Jukkasjärvi. Your guide confirms timing for your date before the tour. Be ready in the lobby in full winter clothing so the group can leave on time for the fishing spot. ### What details do you need for the fishing licence? The fishing licence is included, but you need to provide full name, nationality, street address, postal code and city when booking. This is required for the licence paperwork. Have those details ready at checkout so there is no delay arranging the licence for your date. ### How cold will it feel? It can feel very cold when you are sitting still on the ice, especially with wind. Layered clothing and a reindeer hide help, and a fire is lit for warmth during the outing. If anyone needs a break, speak to the guide. Comfort and safety come first on winter ice. ### Can children join? Yes, from 7 years old. The activity is easy in terms of technique, but children still need proper winter clothing and adult supervision. Small groups help the guide keep an eye on younger guests while everyone learns the basics on the ice. ### What happens in bad weather? The tour may be cancelled in a snowstorm, harsh weather or if participant numbers are too low. Your guide will update you on the day if plans change. Stay reachable on the contact details used for booking so you receive any weather or timing updates quickly. ### How long is the experience? Plan for around five hours from pickup to drop-off, usually across a morning window of about 09:00 to 14:00. Exact timing can shift with conditions and group pace. That includes transfers, the safety brief, fishing time and the return to your hotel. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/341ee2ba-4142-463c-9d49-0a49fb954cfb-3-scaled.jpeg - **Gallery image count**: 6 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
