Private Ice Fishing Tour (sample 10:30 departure)
Meet your guide at the parking lot in front of Pyhä-Luosto Visitor Centre Naava. The guide will fit you with ice-fishing equipment and give a safety and technique briefing. Walk a short distance to a prepared fishing spot on a nearby frozen lake. You will drill your own ice hole with an auger, try ice-fishing using a short rod and bait, and spend guided time fishing. If you get cold you can warm by the campfire while enjoying included hot beverages and a light Nordic outdoor lunch. The guide wraps up with basic care of equipment and returns to the visitor centre parking.
Tips from local experts:
- Use warm, layered clothing and waterproof winter boots; visit the Pyhä-Luosto Visitor Centre Naava toilets and change area before departure if needed.
- Bring a small backpack with spare gloves/hat and any child essentials (snacks, spare layers); the activity is suitable for children but supervise them near the ice at all times.
- Inform the operator of any food allergies in advance; the provided outdoor lunch uses local ingredients and the guide will accommodate restrictions where possible.
