Santa Claus Reindeer

Welcome to Santa Claus Reindeer, a local family-run reindeer farm and experience provider in Rovaniemi, Lapland. We’re proud to be part of the traditional reindeer herding culture, sharing its stories, values, and connection to nature with visitors from all over the world.

As Santa Claus’ trusted reindeer herd, we offer authentic, respectful, and joyful reindeer experiences in both Santa Claus Village and at our peaceful countryside farm. Whether you’re visiting us in winter, summer, or autumn, we invite you to step into a world where Arctic nature, reindeer, and local traditions meet.

🦌 In winter, enjoy traditional reindeer sleigh rides right in Santa Claus Village – no reservation needed. Longer safaris at our remote farm include peaceful reindeer rides through snowy forests, feeding reindeer by hand, and warming up by the fire with Lappish snacks and stories.

🌿 In summer and autumn, visit our easy-access reindeer paddock in Santa Claus Village to meet and feed Santa’s reindeer, enjoy reindeer info moments and coffee by the fire. Right next door, you can also meet Mrs. Santa Claus in her warm and welcoming Christmas Cottage – an experience filled with heart, laughter, and the spirit of Christmas.

For a deeper connection, join our half-day Life of a Reindeer Herder program, where guests step into the real, everyday world of Arctic reindeer herding. No performances – just genuine, hands-on participation in the seasonal work that sustains reindeer and the people who care for them.

💚 At Santa Claus Reindeer, reindeer welfare is our foundation. Every reindeer is respected as an individual – with rest days, proper nutrition, space to roam, and care that honors both tradition and modern animal wellbeing standards.

✨ We are a small team with a big heart. Everything we do is guided by our love for Lapland, our animals, and our guests. For us, this is a way of life we’re proud to share.

📍 Visit us at Santa Claus Village, Rovaniemi – or join us at our remote reindeer farm just a short ride away.
