Wildlife & Nature

Lapland nature is an experience you do not want to miss. Forests that stretch far and wide across the landscape and high mountain ranges are home to rich wildlife where you can see, among others, moose, reindeer and a wide range of bird species. No matter whether you join a relaxing boat tour underneath the midnight sun, spend an evening Icelandic horseback riding in the light summer night or pack your camera and tripod for a wildlife and nature photo tour, you will have memories for life. Magnificent, sprawling and beautiful scenery is waiting for you. But do remember, even if our nature may seem at times desolate and uninhabited, we do not call it a wilderness, out of respect for those people who have lived on and used what the land, waterways and forests offer for generations without leaving visible traces. And this is exactly how we want it, we show respect for our wildlife and nature, a nature that is not ours to exploit, but rather for us to preserve.
