Ylläsjarvi sits serenely at the southern base of the region’s highest ‘fell’, home to Finland’s longest ski run. Arctic blue polar skies provide a stunning backdrop to pristine snow-covered forests and undulating slopes that seem to illuminate before the eyes.

The crisp, dry climate ensures snow reliability right through one of the longest ski seasons. Whether you’re looking for an action-packed week of skiing and adventures, or something a little more relaxing, Ylläs can offer both. Its uncrowded, floodlit slopes are ideal for beginners and intermediates, while the sheer choice of activities means you can try things you’ve only ever dreamed of.

Visit our acitivities and apres ski page for details including our FREE ARCTIC ADVENTURES TASTER!

Substantial investment has been ploughed into the resort and ski area over the past few years and more is planned, including new slopes and a gondola for Winter 2007/08. On the contrary, what won’t change is the warm, friendly welcome you receive from everyone and the unforgettable memories you leave with.

Lapland - Home to Santa Claus

We all associate Lapland with Santa Claus, so a trip to Yllas wouldn't be the same without meeting Santa and his reindeers! Check out our activities page for details!

We stayed in the Yllas Loma Cabins and ours was absolutely stunning! it was in such a beautiful area in amoungst loads of snow covered trees. we were just out of the way but not too far from eveything. we did a variety of different excursions and all were such wonderful experiences! would do them all again. tried a private lesson skiing on our last day (we had never done it before) and have deffinately caught the bug. we loved it and want to go back and do the whole sking package! i could go on and on about this holiday but i'll be here all night. i really can't wait to go back-a truely magical place!
