Walk to the end of the road, across the big road. Probably the best nerby place to seek aurora borealis (there is a hill where you can see far away, no lights). It's a great sled hill too. There's also a Skiing/ walking route near. You can see the routes more specifically here: http://www.mski.fi/rovaniemi/main.jsp
