Building a Snow Igloo, Rovaniemi

The traditional igloos in Lapland are built of snow. You can also customize your igloo to have windows, a door, and even beds. Great fun for the family all together!

Great barbeque lunch is offered in a tepee by living fire!

The first igloos were built by the Inuit. They used the snow to isolate their house because the air contained in the snow is a good insulator. Igloos were used in the past during wintertime as temporary shelter for hunters, now it is mostly for recreation.
