The World's Northernmost Roller Coaster

Perched on the slopes of Ruka, this is the northernmost roller coaster on the planet — and one of the most fun things you can do in Lapland with kids. A guided winter adventure takes you from Rovaniemi through frozen forests to the mountain.

The 767-metre track winds down the snowy hillside at up to 40 km/h, with stunning views across the fells. Best of all, you control your own speed with a brake lever — so it's as gentle or as thrilling as you want, perfect for families and adrenaline-seekers alike.

The day also includes a scenic drive and a guided walk along safe winter trails, where you'll learn about the area's nature and geology.
