Korouoma Canyon: The 15 Best Frozen Waterfall Hikes

41 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.9 average  ·  from $106

Korouoma is a collapsed rift about two hours northeast of Rovaniemi where the seep water freezes into ice columns tens of metres high. It is a real hike on cleats, not a viewpoint stop. These 15 differ on transfer time, how much of the canyon floor you actually walk and whether the barbecue at the end is included.
