Meet Santa Claus in his magical cottage Rovaniemi, Lapland

Step into a true Christmas fairytale just outside Rovaniemi, the official hometown of Santa Claus. At Porovaara Hill, Santa’s beloved reindeer are not only waiting to meet you—they’re eager to say hello and nibble on their favorite treat, lichen!

These gentle, majestic animals are Santa’s trusted travel companions. Without them, delivering Christmas gifts around the world would be impossible. But even magic takes a little preparation! At Porovaara, the reindeer practice all the skills needed for Christmas Eve: pulling a sleigh full of presents, navigating snowy paths, and even making precision rooftop landings.

Just a 20-minute scenic drive from Rovaniemi’s center, you’ll discover this peaceful, snowy haven where reindeer train and Santa welcomes visitors in a charming, private setting.
