Description
Step into the stillness of the Arctic night and join us for a magical reindeer sleigh ride across an open fell bog in the heart of the northern wilderness. Far away from light pollution and human-made distractions, this peaceful route offers one of the best possible settings in Lapland to experience the true magic of the night.
Northern lights are simply magical. No wonder seeing this natural phenomenon is a dream come true for nearly every visitor to Lapland. Many are lucky enough to witness them—but nature has its own rhythm, and nothing can ever be guaranteed. People cannot control the sky, only be present under it. That said, our location offers some of the very best conditions in Lapland for spotting the auroras.
Your journey begins with a guided adventure into the wilderness. You'll enjoy a peaceful reindeer sleigh ride through snowy, silent landscapes—an unforgettable experience in itself.
After the ride, we gather by the campfire to enjoy some warm blueberry juice and pulla. You can also enjoy your own snacks there, if you like. If you're lucky, the auroras will dance above you. But even if they don’t appear, the setting is still nothing short of magical: ancient trees - often covered in snow - resembling fairytale creatures; a star-filled sky and the soft glow of the Milky Way; moonlight painting diamonds across untouched snow. And if the sky is fully clouded, you’ll experience the quiet darkness of the polar night—soothing, deep, and undisturbed.
No rush. No lights. No noise. Just you, the reindeer, and the vast, pure Arctic night.
Maximum number of participants on this tour is 6.
Itinerary
Step into the silence of the Arctic night and experience a magical reindeer sleigh ride under the stars. This evening tour follows a peaceful route across an open fell bog, deep in the northern wilderness—far from artificial lights, traffic, and human-made distractions.
Surrounded by untouched nature and total darkness, this setting offers perfect conditions for stargazing—and if the sky is clear, you may even witness the Northern Lights dancing above.
The experience has the added magic of the night. After the ride, you’ll have time to meet and feed the reindeer, enjoy the warmth of an open fire, and sip a hot drink with freshly baked pulla.
This is a calm and meditative experience that lets you connect deeply with nature, the animals, and the pure stillness of the Arctic night.

Please note
Please note that we do not have any attractions build specially for visitors. Instead we offer authentic and natural real-life experiences in wilderness and free ranging semi-wild reindeer herd. But no fear, we’ll surely take good care of you and it’s completely safe, though.
In all our journeys, we respect nature and show how to behave respectfully in nature. All activities are planned carefully also according to this. We use as little and as eco-friendly products as possible, minimize the waste, and recycle everything. Anything you bring to nature, also bring it back with you. We also minimize our carbon footprint by conserving our own forests from heavy forestry. We also have an own provate, official nature conservation area, the old forest.
