Reindeer Farm & Sled Riding

Why This Experience Is Different

Reindeer herding has been part of life in Lapland for generations.

We'll visit a traditional family farm, spend time with the reindeer and hear the stories behind one of Lapland's oldest ways of life.

Then we'll head into the snowy forest for a peaceful sled ride before warming up with hot drinks and something to eat.

It's a relaxed experience that everyone can enjoy.
