About this activity

Experience authentic Lapland traditions on this 3.5-hour Arctic adventure combining reindeer sledging and husky racing just 20 minutes from Rovaniemi town centre. You'll ride through snowy forests, meet sled dogs up close, and learn about traditional reindeer herding culture by a warming fire.

Experience the magic of Lapland just 20 minutes outside of Rovaniemi with this unforgettable Arctic animal adventure. Your experience begins with a meeting at our Safari Office or at our City Office, where you'll be greeted by your guide. You'll then gear up in warm winter overalls to ensure you're comfortable and protected during the tour. When everyone is ready, start your way to Reindeer Manor.

Begin your journey with a peaceful 500-meter sledge ride through snowy forests, pulled by majestic reindeer. After the ride, learn about the fascinating world of reindeer herding lifestyle — all while enjoying warm berry juice and delicious cookies around a crackling fire.

Next, feel the thrill of a 500-meter ride with a team of energetic Alaskan huskies, racing through the winter landscape. You'll also have the chance to meet the huskies up close.

During your visit, you’ll also have some free time to explore the beautiful natural surroundings, take photos, or simply breathe in the crisp, clean Lapland air. If you’d like to warm up further, you’re welcome to enjoy lunch or other hot beverages at our on-site restaurant, available at your own expense.

Perfect for families, nature lovers, and those seeking a genuine taste of Lapland’s traditions, this experience blends serene nature, authentic culture, and a touch of adventure.
