Great experience!! - The activity was great, the 2 instructors too, and we had a great time discovering ice climbing. It requires technique and biscuits, but everyone can do it at their own pace depending on their age and physical condition. You are free to climb at your own pace and as high as you can, no stress. Superb discovery in any case, on a beautiful ice waterfall which dominates us at the start but which we apprehend little by little and which we manage to dominate later for the strongest! I recommend ! :)

brilliant experience - a must! - We were picked up in Luosto and taken to Pyhä. In Pyhä we got the necessary equipment and set off on foot to the ice wall. There was an on-site introduction to ice climbing safety and technique, as well as a short demonstration. Afterwards we were able to climb the wall twice in alternation. While the others were climbing, we were able to warm up by the fire and enjoy a hot berry juice. Successful tour. Many thanks to the great guides (Tina & Thomas).

Challenging enough and fun for everyone - We had an amazing ice climbing experience in Pyha! Challenging, but doable for everyone in our family. Our guides Inessa and Jeppe (hope writing is correct) explained everything very clear and guided us super well through the day. Inessa coached one of us with a fear of heights super good and made him comfortable enough to climb almost to the top.

Ice climbing for beginners- very fun, highly recommend. - We tried ice climbing for the first time with Bliss adventures in Pyha. My 12 yo and I were both nervous and a bit nervous with heights. Our guides Laura and Inessa were phenomenal. The were knowledgeable, gave clear, complete instructions, and were experienced at managing your climb safely. They were really great with my kiddo who made it to the “top” and was so excited. (They also had some cool t-shirts for a souvenir, along with a certificate for him. Wish they had the t-shirt in long sleeve for me though ;) .)
I was just happy to make it 2/5 of the way. It was hard work but a really wonderful activity. Would highly recommend.

We had a lot of fun - Definitely one of the highlights of our Lapland experience. We did this the last day when we were already tired of a week full activities. But it didn't matter really, ice climbing gave us such a boost! We had a great guide, Reidar, who explained everything very well and most of all, made us feel comfortable to do it.
For anyone in doubt of trying this: please give it a try! I thought it would be scary as sh**, but I managed very well and without any fear. We had a lot of fun and can highly recommend!

Like very much - We were the only ones with our son that day, but only my son participated in the activity. The ice climbing activity was very safe and the instructor was very professional. My son liked it very much. It was really not easy to climb to the top. In the end, the challenge was successful. The instructor lit a campfire to keep us warm. It’s very considerate. Friends who like outdoor activities can come and participate in this.
