Experience the reindeer calving season

Reindeer calving in Karasjok – Day trip: A once in a life time experience.

Welcome to this unique adventure and to our calving reindeer herd here in Karasjok in Northern Norway.

We start the day with a snowmobile trip through a beautiful landscape to our herd, a 10 minutes long ride. If there is little snow, then we will walk or go with the ATV instead. We will inform you about the snow conditions in advance.

When we arrive, you can sit on a rein- deer skin outside, and relax and enjoy the moment fully, and after a while you can join us around the bonfire, where we will tell you everything we know about reindeer calving.

We will serve you fresh coffee brewed traditionally on an open fire, and you will even get to taste dried reindeer meat. During this adventure you will also get the opportunity to feed the reindeer.

By visiting us, you will get to see the reindeer herd up close, and if you are lucky, you might even see reindeer giving birth. You will learn alot about our traditions and our culture – and this sure is – a once in a lifetime experience.
