After a brief introduction, we set off towards the reindeer pasture and you will travel comfortably in a snowmobile-drawn sled. We will stop among hundreds of reindeer, offering you a unique opportunity for close-up and ethical encounters with the animals. Our most curious reindeer will happily eat lichen straight from your hand and there is plenty of time to get to know their calm and gentle nature.
Then we'll continue the tour and distribute the reindeer's daily pellet feed. Watching the herd run alongside the sled is truly mesmerising.
Then we gather around the campfire inside our traditional kota tent to enjoy warm berry juice along with homemade sweet and savoury delicacies and roast marshmallows. Please let us know in advance about any dietary preferences or restrictions.
As we relax by the fire, you will hear stories about the history and significance of reindeer husbandry in Lapland. You will also have the opportunity to learn how to master the use of a reindeer herder’s lasso.
If you are up for more adventures, we can continue with a walk through the forest with our young soon-to-be sled reindeer, who will happily follow you if you reward them with some lichen.
We are located in a small village right at the heart of Finnish Lapland, 90km north of Rovaniemi. We will provide the driving instructions upon booking.
