HIKING WITH REINDEER 1 hour (private) + VISIT

How about a walk with reindeer? 

We offer a fun 1-hour outing where you get to walk the Farmyard’s reindeer through the forest near Santa Claus Village. You start off with your guide at the Farmyard.  First we give some food for the reindeer. You can take all the pictures you want along the way. 2 reindeer at a time can go for a walk. Reindeer are semi-wild animals so walking may not be as easy as with a dog. The reindeer have a lot of power and the horns are big and sharp so you have to be careful too.

Children over 15 may walk a reindeer by themselves; younger children will need an adult to help them. The activity is not suitable for children under 7, who may find it difficult to cover the entire distance. We recommend walking for over 7 years.

Reindeer moss. You can buy moss at the time of booking and feed to reindeer which is a delicacy for reindeer but also an important food for them. You will get the moss packed in a bag when you arrive.

Please wear clothes and shoes suitable for the weather and forest. 

You will have a chance to see the Farmyard’s other animals on your own (1h) or as long as you want. Guests can use our Lapland hut (kota) and campfire/barbecue. Buy snacks and drinks from the elf’s store.

Please come to the farmyard we’ll meet you there. 

Please let us know if you would like a guide in French or Spanish.

The booking will be closed in the web shop one day before. If you want to make a reservation after that or if you want to book at other times or if you have any other questions please contact tallitontunpiha@gmail.com
