About Rovaniemi and Ounasvaara
Rovaniemi sits where the Ounas and Kemi rivers meet, on the Arctic Circle, and it serves as the capital of Lapland. Ounasvaara is a low fell on the edge of town, a popular place for hiking, cross-country skiing and sledging in winter. The landscape is a mix of forest, lakes and open fells, and the light changes dramatically from one season to the next.
What to watch on the camera
Depending on the view, you may see the town's rooftops, surrounding forest and the snow cover that dominates much of the year. Winter brings the clearest contrast against white ground, while in spring and early summer the long daylight makes the scene bright throughout the day. Clear nights in the darker months are the best time to check for northern lights.
Practical notes for visiting
Winters are long and cold, often well below freezing, while summers are mild and very light. Late winter and spring suit snow activities, and summer suits hiking and the midnight sun. Nearby you can compare the Ounasvaara ski resort camera, the Santa Claus Village camera about 6 km away, and the Apukka camera 14 km out.
