Husky Safari (Juutua)

Husky Safari (Juutua)

Husky Safari will take you through lakes and forests and it is a ‘must do’ experience when visiting Lapland. You will be taught how to handle the sled before you head out for the husky safari, where the huskies will pull your sled through the beautiful winter scenery. Enjoy the excitement of the dogs before the start, and the serene silence once they get to do what they love - run in the snowy scenery. All the husky safaris run so that one guest is mushing and the other one is sitting in the sleigh - positions will be changed halfway.
Meet the Reindeer (Juutua)

Meet the Reindeer (Juutua)

Today you'll meet a local Sami reindeer herder and his reindeer. You'll transfer by minibus to the nearby farm and wander through the trees to find the reindeer roaming in the woodland. The herder will tell you all about life past and present with the reindeer and you'll have the chance to feed them during your visit.
