Morning reindeer feeding and Sámi Culture experience

Your journey begins with a scenic minibus ride through winter landscapes shaped by snow, silence, and Sámi heritage. When we arrive at the reindeer farm, you’ll be welcomed into a calm and personal atmosphere - far from crowds, commercial shows, and staged tourism.

Here, you’ll have the rare chance to feed the reindeer by hand.

For us, in winter, feeding is not a show or a performance - it is an important part of caring for the herd. The reason why we take them home during the coldest months and feed them is that deep snow, ice, and climate changes make it difficult for reindeer to reach their natural food, and responsible feeding ensures their health and survival through the toughest months. This is a real part of Sámi life, not something created for tourism, and guests who join the tour become respectfully part of this real work.

You’ll learn why reindeer are at the center of Sámi identity, how herding traditions are passed down within families, and how nature guides daily life. Through stories, lived experience, and cultural insights, you gain a deeper understanding of what it means to grow up with reindeer, follow their migrations, and respect the land that sustains them.

Warm up with hot lingonberry juice and a small fika as we share tales, history, and personal reflections.

This is more than an activity — it’s an exchange, a meeting between worlds, and a moment to slow down and feel the connection between nature, culture, and the animals who define the Arctic.
