Polar Night

December

In early winter, daylight diminishes and the Polar Night takes hold. Glimpses of sunbeams in the horizon are sparse, but uniquely colourful.

The twilight of the Polar Night embodies the magical mystique of Lapland, and is ideal for cosying up indoors next to a fireplace and getting in tune with the stillness around. Outside, the Northern Lights illuminate the darkness on clear nights.

Restaurants

Ylläs offers a diverse range of restaurants during both the winter and summer seasons. The unique landscapes of the area make dining an exceptional experience – you can enjoy a meal on the top of Ylläs fell, in the tranquility of the forest, or by the calm lake. Menu options include traditional home cooked food as well as beautifully presented five-course meals in high quality fine dining restaurants.

Map

The diverse outdoor trails of Ylläs in its pure and beautiful fell landscape are suitable for the active athlete, day hiker, and those with special needs. The only challenge you might face is the difficulty of choice – there are plenty of routes to go around!

Biggest Ski Resort in Finland welcomes you warmly!

Have you tried skating on the ice of a lake? At its most beautiful, it's like this. ⛸️

But remember that the thickness of ice on lakes varies. So always check the ice conditions before you go out on the ice. Rent skates and safety equipment from @sportcorneryllas ❄️

In Finland, the clocks are changed twice a year: one hour back in the autumn and one hour forward in the spring. Today, the clocks were turned back to winter time, which means that darkness will fall an hour earlier. Darkness, of course, means the possibility to admire the northern lights, even in the middle of the day. 💚
