This unique field trip is intended for slightly more experienced hikers who want to experience the magic of old forests and remote lakes in the scenery of Syöte National Park. We start the trip by packing the equipment in the trunks.

  • Unbelievable - an experience you will never forget.

    “One of the best experiences of our lives. Timo was fantastic. We had 2 children age 10 and 12 and Timo kept us all engaged, happy and warm for the duration. The sled ride to the lake was exciting enough for the kids let alone the fishing. We caught 7 fish and then went to Toni’s fishing cottage where he warmed us with warm juice, showed us how to filet the fish and then prepared our catch and cooked it on the fire. It was delicious. Another sled ride across the lake and through the forest took us back and we all agreed this was one of the best experiences we have had on any of our travels. A truly unique experience with a wonderful guide. Highly recommend to all (dress appropriately!) It was something we will never forget!”

  • Authentic aTimosphere !

    “We had a really great time ice fishing with Timo (during our trip at the Naali Lodge), who is passionate and fascinating. Weather was windy but not so cold (still impressive to pull the net without gloves ahah ! We learnt a lot. The lunch at the cottage was really nice in a friendly atmosphere. Would do it again ! Had to buy cocktails for everyone because the last 10 minutes was... really productive On a passé un très bon moment. Expérience chaudement recommandée.”

  • Local ice fishing experience

    “We spent a day with Timo in December and this was an incredible experience. Timo showed us how to set the traditional fishing net under the ice. He caught 3 fishes with the net that day and he cooked them for us in a typical cabin. That was delicious !! We also tried to fish our own fishes by making and this was really fun to do !

    Landscapes were just amazing all along that day. We had a really great time, thank you Timo for sharing this authentic day with us !”

  • Dont miss out on this ice fishing tour!

    “The trip with Timo was an amazing experience that we will remember a lifetime for sure. We booked the traditional ice fishing tour. It was interesting to see the fishing method with the net. Afterwards we did some jig fishing. Timo brought us to a prewarmed (!) cabin on an island nearby and cooked the fish we caught for us. We had experience in warm weather fishing but it was our first time on ice. Even if you dont have any experience at all, Timo will show you how it is done. Dont miss out on this ice fishing tour!”
