Snowman World
Welcome to the Arctic Circle's most jubilant spot: Snowman World! This enchanting winter wonderland is nestled right next to Santa Claus's home and offers a frosty adventure for all ages, all with just one ticket. Imagine zooming down a thrilling yet safe slide that's perfect for both adults and kids. You can glide across the ice, frolic in a snowball pit, or spin around on a sleigh-go-round. The ice bar and café are a visual treat, showcasing stunning ice sculptures. Here, children sip on raspberry-red drinks while grown-ups enjoy crystal-clear icy beverages. And yes, the glasses are crafted from ice! Surrounded by shimmering snow and ice, you'll encounter the delightful snowman siblings of Snowman World. Flake, the ice hockey enthusiast, is the most spirited of the trio and might just give you a few tips on shooting a puck. Keep an eye out for Frost, the rock star of the group, strumming his air guitar. He's convinced he can summon the northern lights with the perfect chords. Then there's Aurora, their dreamy sister, who adores poetry and the elegance of ice sculptures. Nothing thrills her more than the mesmerizing northern lights, aptly named after her. You might also bump into the groundskeeper snowman who ensures every guest has a magical experience. You won't meet the siblings' parents here, as they work in a snowball factory in Kaamanen, storing snow in secret locations to combat climate change. The siblings spend their winters on the Arctic Circle, immersing themselves in winter sports, ice and snow sculpting, and aurora hunting. They'll introduce you to the magic of the Arctic outdoors, encouraging you to try new activities like sliding down icy hills, ice skating, and even attempting your hand at ice sculpting. Did you know? Snowman World is not just about fun and games. It's a place where you can learn about the fascinating science behind the northern lights and the sustainable practices of preserving snow. This makes it a unique blend of adventure and education, perfect for curious minds.
