Overview

Spend a day as a real reindeer herder and explore the wilderness by experiencing Finnish winter fishing methods. Join us to feed the large reindeer herd in their natural habitat.

We'll take you into the forest seated in a snowmobile sleigh to feed a large herd of reindeer in their natural habitat. After this, you'll have the chance to try traditional winter fishing methods, such as fishing with nets under the ice and ice fishing!

We'll enjoy a homemade lunch in a traditional Sámi hut. The lunch includes creamy reindeer soup or a vegan wild mushroom soup, served with cold water and homemade hot berry juice.
