Immerse yourself in the fabulous world of Arctic animals! This 2-day experience combines a bear-watching safari with overnight in a wilderness hut, a reindeer experience in a traditional farm and an option to visit the Ranua Wildlife Park.
Immerse yourself in the fabulous world of Arctic animals! This tour is the only one in Lapland that really allows you to see and learn about the main animals that reside in the Arctic.
The trip will first start with a stop at one of the most authentic reindeer farms in Rovaniemi area. The herders have been living just outside of Rovaniemi on the lovely shores of a peaceful lake for more than 200 years. As you will be taken in the surroundings, you will learn about the reindeer from the herders. They will show you around the traditional farm and, because it is the first visit of the day, you will be given a chance to feed them their favourite food, lichen, which to reindeer is like chocolate! The visit will end with a very friendly time around the fire in the company of a herder who will answer all your questions and share their passion with you.
After this great time with the reindeer, your guide will drive you for a long ride in the direction of the Russian border. On the way, you will have the chance to stop by at the Auttiköngas national park and its waterfalls, where you can see a bit more of Lapland nature and get a light snack with a wonderful view. Before you finally reach your final destination, you will enjoy a filling 3-course meal that has been prepared for you in a remote wilderness lodge. After dinner, you will make your way to the bear-watching hut. There, surrounded by pure Lapland scenery, you can already hear the Call of the Wild! You are just 200 metres from the Russian border, but the first Russian village is 100 kilometres away!
A professional bear-watcher will greet you silently, giving you an understanding that you are now stood in the open with wild bears in the forest around you 😉
