Activity itinerary

Embark on a rare Sámi cultural experience guided by Elli Marja, 83 years old – a woman who has lived her entire life with the reindeer and the rhythms of the north. During this intimate visit, she welcomes you into her world, sharing stories passed down through generations: how her family survived the winters, how reindeer shaped daily life, and what it truly means to grow up in a traditional reindeer-herding community. You’ll meet the free-roaming reindeer, learn why winter feeding is essential when deep snow and ice block natural grazing, and gain insight into the challenges modern herders face today. With warmth, humour, and wisdom, Elli Marja offers a perspective that cannot be learned in books – only lived. This is not a show, but a genuine encounter with Sámi heritage, resilience, and a way of life that has endured in one of the world’s harshest yet most beautiful landscapes.
