This journey begins at a local reindeer farm right on the outskirts of Rovaniemi, but deep enough to be entrenched in the forest. Meet many reindeers, including the cute little ones and have many opportunities for fantastic pictures. Experience the old-school way of travelling on a sled in the Arctic Circle and imagine what it must be like for Santa to be pulled by reindeers. A safe trail will be followed, designed and maintained by reindeer herders themselves. Worried about the temperature? There's no reason to be as you'll lay down in the sleigh and will be covered by warm blankets. Afterwards, you're welcome to visit a farmer’s house for snacks and warm drinks
Note: The pick-up time may slightly differ depending on your pick-up location, so please kindly check the email we'll send you after the reservation for the exact pick-up information.
