We offer you a once-in-a-lifetime experience of meeting the reindeer in a traditional way at a local reindeer farm. Take advantage of this exclusive private experience just for our small group. Avoid the tourist buzz and crowds. Our host keeps long-standing family traditions in reindeer herding. Reindeer always live free most of the year in nature and are only collected into the farm for the wintertime for proper feeding and care. Animals’ well-being is the top priority of the farmers. We don’t use reindeer for rides, they live on the traditional feeding grounds and move around freely within a big farm area. Our groups are quite small (up to 15 people) and visits are scheduled only 2 times a day.First, we will get dressed in warm winter clothing and helmets. Then we will drive about 7 minutes outside Levi center to the pickup point, where we will change from car to a sled and go for a ride pulled by a snowmobile. On our way we will see beautiful Lappish nature: open bogs, forests and fells. Part of the route lies on private lands, where we will be exclusive visitors one-on-one with nature. After some 15 minutes of sled ride, we will arrive straight to the reindeer enclosure and in the blink of an eye you will be surrounded by the “sea” of reindeer. Our host, the owner of the reindeer farm, will greet you, introduce himself and his family and get you acquainted with the Lappish reindeer husbandry experience. You will pick up the food and start feeding the reindeer. We use different types of food, usually hay and pellets. As we slowly move through different feeding locations, we get to meet and feed dozens of reindeer. This is a great opportunity to spend quality time with these beautiful animals, be close to them and take nice photos. Some of the reindeer might let you touch them, while most of them are still quite shy, as they are wild animals, living most of the year free in nature. We call this experience “reindeer therapy”, for its peaceful and relaxing impression. The farm is positioned in a beautiful spot with nice views to open bogs, forests and surrounding fells.You will spend about one hour outside with reindeer. The host will tell you interesting facts about the reindeer and the herder’syear. As you start to feel chilly, we will invite you inside the warm Lappish hut (kota), where our chef will offer you lunch.Get comfortable on the benches covered by reindeer skins close to the open fire and we will offer you a warm drink of your choice: herbal tea (naturally decaffeinated) and berry juice. Being outside in the cold naturally increases your appetite, so it’s time to eat locally made reindeer sausage grilled in the open fire. Sausages are made ecologically from the local ingredients and taste like you never had before. After that our chef will serve you thin and crispy pancakes topped with jam from local berries and whipped cream. Pancakes are usually best accompanied by freshly made coffee in a pot on the open fire. In the meantime, our host will continue with storytelling about the reindeer and arctic way of living and of course answer your questions.Finally, it’s time to practice lasso throwing outside the hut (kota). This experience is always lots of fun. At this point, you will receive a personal diploma of reindeer herder’s assistant. Then it’s time to say goodbye and return to Levi by car/minibus directly from the farm.

Inside, wooden benches covered with reindeer hides surround an open fire, creating the perfect setting to warm up and relax.To start, you’ll be offered a hot drink of your choice: herbal tea (naturally caffeine-free) or hot berry juice to help restore warmth and energy after time in the cold.Then it’s time for a fun and authentic Arctic tradition: grilling your own reindeer sausages over the open fire using long sticks. This hands-on experience is a beloved part of Finnish and Lappish culture. The sausages — made from ethically sourced, local ingredients — are full of flavor and taste even better after outdoor adventure. Vegetarian or other dietary options are available upon request.After the main course, enjoy a sweet dessert: thin and crispy pancakes topped with jam made from hand-picked Arctic berries and fresh whipped cream, served with coffee brewed over the open fire in a traditional pot. All ingredients are locally sourced, celebrating the seasonal tastes of Lapland.While you enjoy your meal, your host will continue sharing stories about reindeer life, Sámi-inspired traditions, and the realities of Arctic living.

Fun program for the whole family. You’ll get a bunch of memorable experiences of the Lappish reindeer herders’ culture on this short program. You will visit an old reindeer farm that dates back more than 150 years. It lies on the bank of the longest river in Lapland and is surrounded by taiga forest. You will be guided to the reindeer sleds and go for a reindeer ride (about 1 km) through the beautiful pine forest. You’ll be able to take pictures with the reindeer and feed them with lichen. Depending on the group and season your host might be able to take you inside the reindeer corral, where you can experience a “reindeer therapy” - a close encounter with young reindeer calves. You can also check out old buildings around the farm, which have a nice collection of old Lappish artifacts from the reindeer herders. After the ride, you can taste Finnish warm berry juice in the old café (or mulled non-alcoholic wine “glöggi” only in the period 20.12-10.1) and fresh home-made donuts (traditional “munkki” in Finnish), buy souvenirs from reindeer antlers and conserves from local berries.

We offer you a once-in-a-lifetime experience of meeting the reindeer in their natural habitat by visiting a reindeer forest in the wilderness. Take advantage of this exclusive private experience just for our small group. Avoid the tourist buzz and crowds. Our host keeps long-standing family traditions in reindeer herding. Reindeer always live free most of the year in nature and only collected in the enclosures for the wintertime for proper feeding and care. Animals’ well-being is the top priority of the farmers. We don’t use reindeer for rides, they live on the traditional feeding grounds and freely move around within a large area in their natural environment. Our groups are quite small (up to 10 people) and visits are scheduled only 2 times a day.First, we will get dressed in warm winter clothing and helmets. Then we will drive about 7 minutes outside Levi center to the pickup point, where we will change from car to a sled and go for a ride pulled by a snowmobile. On our way we will see beautiful Lappish nature: open bogs, forests and fells. Part of the route lies on private lands, where we will be exclusive visitors one-on-one with nature. After some 20-30 minutes of sled ride, we will arrive at an old forest with pine and birch trees. Forest is privately owned by the reindeer family and there are no other visitors in the whole area. Curious reindeer will approach the sled expecting to get food. Our host will greet you, introduce himself and his family and get you acquainted with the Lappish reindeer husbandry experience. You will pick up the food and start feeding the reindeer. We use different types of food, usually hay and pellets. As we slowly move through different feeding locations, we get to meet and feed dozens of reindeer. This is a great opportunity to spend quality time with these beautiful animals, be close to them and take nice photos. Some of the reindeer might let you touch them, while most of them are still quite shy, as they are wild animals, living most of the year free in nature. We call this experience “reindeer therapy”, for its peaceful and relaxing impression.You will spend about one hour outside with reindeer. The host will tell you interesting facts about the reindeer and the herders year. As you start to feel chilly, we will invite you inside the warm Lappish hut (kota), where our chef will offer you lunch.Get comfortable on the benches covered by reindeer skins close to the open fire and we will offer you a warm drink of your choice: herbal tea (naturally decaffeinated) and berry juice. Being outside in the cold naturally increases your appetite. Our lunch menu starts with a savory vegetable soup with a local flat bread “rieska” slightly toasted on the open fire. Then we offer you a reindeer sausage that you should grill in the open fire by yourself (our chef gives instructions). Sausages are made from the local ingredients ecologically and taste like you never had before. After that our chef will serve you thin and crispy pancakes, freshly grilled on the pan on the open fire, topped with jam from local berries and whipped cream. Pancakes are usually best accompanied by freshly made coffee in a pot on the open fire. In the meantime, our host will continue with storytelling about the reindeer and arctic way of living and of course answer your questions.Finally, it’s time to practice lasso throwing outside the hut (kota). This experience is always lots of fun. At this point, you will receive personal diploma of reindeer herder’s assistant. Then it’s time to say goodbye and return to civilization. Our trip back is also by a snowmobile sled but a shorter distance this time (about 10 min).Note! This activity is recommended for families with children aged 10 and above!
