Join us in experiencing the different seasons of the year! During winter season we first celebrate the Lappish Polar Night, Winter Wonderland and Holiday Spirit followed by lovely Mid-Winter and sunny Spring time.
During all season, you get to explore the short nature trail with a glimpse of Finnish Folklore and mythology and focus on all your senses, meet the huskies and other domestic animals, learn about our life at the farm, and do a seasonal handicraft. In addition, your private farm visit includes a husky activity – family husky sledding sessions or husky walk. Your inner child will love this!
We wish you warmly welcome to experience the connection with our beautiful huskies and other domestic animals and explore the nature path in the small forest. You will get to know our family members and learn about our life on the farm. Signs on the short and easy nature path invite you to learn about Finnish mythology and connect with nature doing some little tasks. In the small Kammi hut you get to have your Shaman experience, playing Lappish drums and singing bowls and focusing on your senses. Indoors, either in the house or Kota hut, we get to warm up by the fire and do our seasonal handicraft – a self-made souvenir for you to take home with you. After all the activities, it’s lovely to just relax by the fire and eat lunch or enjoy warm drinks.
All different seasons are special in their own way, be it Holiday Season, Polar Night, Mid-Winter or Spring time. The place not only looks magical but also smells, sounds and feels magical. The torches and candles giving light when not the sun, campfires warmth, bells and drums telling us stories and bringing us wisdom from our ancestors.
During your private farm visit, you will get the chance to really cuddle with the huskies and connect with them.
In this private program, we arrange Husky activities according to your wishes:
- If you wish and the weather permits, we arrange a mushing session (Husky sledding) mainly for the children and teenagers (4-17y) in your group. Also adults may have a go with 1-2 sled dogs on the short and safe sledding tracks in our little forest. Younger children will enjoy sitting in the sleds.
- If you wish, we can arrange Husky Walk activities in our little forest or combine the Husky Walks with the Mushing Activity. In Husky Walk activities you learn how to harness the dog, after which you take a walk along the paths, attached to the dog with a special belt and leash, and can feel how strong the dogs are!
- In the Husky Activities you will get thorough instructions and assistance from your host.
At the end of your program, your family or group of friends will enjoy private lunch or snack by the fire inside the main house or in the cozy Lappish hut. The experience includes a warm drink and snack. You can also choose to have lunch for an extra fee. In that case, please choose the number of lunches when booking. We serve warm soup for lunch, including bread. You may choose the type of soup in advance: local fish, reindeer or vegetable soup. Everything is cooked and baked at the farm, as local and ecological as possible.
The farm changes according to the seasons but the place always feels inviting. You are warmly welcome to see it for yourself, to experience all this together with us!
Please note: Only persons who are booked to participate get to enter the farm (+ children under the age of 4). Also younger children (under the age of 4) can participate and even try sledding, free of charge.
