Santa Claus and reindeers

Did you know that Santa Claus comes from Finland? You can meet him in Rovaniemi, Santa's official hometown. Lapland is also home to its legendary reindeer. With around 200,000 roaming freely across the vast wilderness, these cute creatures are everywhere, adding a fairy-tale charm to the rugged landscape. Experience the thrill of a reindeer-drawn sleigh gliding through snow-covered forests, or chase the northern lights across the Arctic sky, watching green and gold ribbons dance overhead. Every moment in Lapland is an invitation to explore, discover and embrace the extraordinary.
