RovaniemiYour experience
A little closer to Lapland.
Spend the night in nature of Lapland in a traditional reindeer herders' wooden lean-to, laavu. Above, the sky is infinite, and you are surrounded by the silence of Porovaara and the reindeer pastures.
Explore the experience
Reindeer herders in Lapland have traditionally spent the night outdoors during their reindeer husbandry work. In Porovaara you too can spend the night in an authentic reindeer herders' lean-to (laavu) in the middle of a reindeer pasture. An experience that combines the magnificent nature of Lapland with an ancient way of life close to it!
The sleeping bag is a very warm reindeer hide sleeping bag, which reindeer herders have always relied on in the Arctic night. You can admire the Lapland sky directly from your sleeping place while a campfire warms up next to you.
In Porovaara you can stay in complete privacy, as the area is privately owned. Your guide will be present at all times in a nearby cottage.
In the morning, you wake up to fresh frosty air and start your day by feeding the reindeer that have spent the night under the same sky. Then you can enjoy a traditional Lappish breakfast by the campfire.
Book a night in an exquisite billion-star hotel in Porovaara, Rovaniemi.
What’s included

Good to know
The overnight stay takes place in the cold outside air. There is also a warm space near the laavu where you can sleep if necessary.
It is your responsibility to dress warmly. (We recommend rather too many layers that can be removed depending on weather.)
Minimum age limit: 12 years old
Warm winter clothes and shoes. We recommend a warm underlayer.
