About the activity

Experience the Arctic night with an expert reindeer herder and some adorable animals on this Northern Lights reindeer sleigh ride from Rovaniemi! Known as the "official" hometown of Santa Claus, Rovaniemi is a wonderful modern city, and the capital of the Finnish Lapland region. Surrounded by breathtaking and wild Arctic landscapes, this place is perfect to go looking for the Northern Lights, a natural phenomenon that occurs thanks to the interaction between the Earth's atmosphere and the sun's particles.

On the day of your Northern Lights reindeer sleigh ride from Rovaniemi, you'll have the opportunity to be picked up by your instructor within a 10-kilometre radius of Rovaniemi's city centre. You can also arrive by yourself at the StayLapland headquarters. There, you'll meet your expert instructor, who will distribute the thermal overalls, snow boots, beanies, mittens and other winter apparel necessary to stay safe during the experience. You'll then be transported to the reindeer farm.

Next, it's time for the adventure to begin! An authentic reindeer herder will welcome you into the farm and show you to the already prepared reindeer-pulled sleigh, which will take you on a wonderful ride into the Lappish forest. You'll be able to relax and keep your eyes on the sky, searching for the Northern Lights. Once you return to the farm, you'll share some warm berry juice with your instructor and learn all you can about the rich reindeer herding culture in Finnish Lapland before returning to Rovaniemi.

Keep in mind that the temperatures in the Arctic can go from 5 to -30 degrees Celsius, so bringing very small children on this activity might not be the best idea. You should also come prepared with thermal or wool underlayers, and extra warm layers to wear under the suit, as well as anything else you may need (medication, extra snacks, sunglasses, etc.) to spend a safe and fun 4 hours on this Northern Lights reindeer sleigh ride from Rovaniemi!

Take your chance to enjoy a peaceful experience under the Arctic sky, searching for a wonderful natural phenomenon with some adorable creatures by your side. Book your Northern Lights reindeer sleigh ride from Rovaniemi!
