Our Story, Our Reindeer, Our Home

We are a family-run reindeer company in the heart of Lapland, sharing our way of life, our culture, and our love for reindeer with visitors from around the world.

A Family Tradition Rooted in Lapland

Our story in Santa Claus reindeer might be longer already than a reindeer herd! Our reindeer company was born from our family’s deep connection to nature, reindeer, and the timeless traditions of Lapland.

Over four generations, we’ve been working with reindeer, sharing our Sámi culture and authentic experiences with visitors from all over the world.

We are a family-run reindeer farm built in the 1960s, when our family moved to the area. Reindeer herding was our way of life – through the seasons of nature changes and all together we as a family.

Today, we continue that proud tradition together – guided by old values of kindness, natural happiness, and the magic of the Lapland.

Come as a guest, leave with a story you’ll carry forever.
