Elf’s Farmyard

In a traditional rustic setting at the Arctic Circle, next door to Santa Claus, you’ll find a welcoming little farmyard with reindeer, alpacas, llamas, sheep, goats, peacocks, rabbits and different birds. You can watch domestic animals in their daily activities under Arctic weather conditions and, best of all, you can pet and feed most of them. Kids love them and they love kids!

There’s winter fun –coasting down the little hill on site!

Guests can use our Lapland huts (kota) and campfire/barbecue.

All this is included in the entrance fee. Elf’s Farmyard is located at the Arctic Circle, at the north end of Santa Claus Village – and quite near Santa Claus himself. An entrance ticket can be purchased from our store when you arrive at the Elf’s Farm.

You are warmly welcome!
