Itinerary

See over 50 species of arctic animals including the rare polar bears along the wonderful 2,5km walking trail at Ranua zoo. Among the 200 animals there, see top predators such as the lynx, brown bears, wolves, arctic fox, wolverines, river otters, snow owls, and much more! Check out big herbivores like the musk ox and European moose among others. Spend time finding the hiding and camouflaged little cuties such as the minks and stoats. Be sure to be on time for the feeding hours for various animals!
After enjoying the traditional Finnish buffet lunch in restaurant, your guide will take you to a closer encounter with Lapland’s VIP animals—the reindeer and huskies. Listen and get to know their daily lives, the husky musher and reindeer herder are happy to share many interesting stories with you. If lucky with working conditions for these lovable animal friends, you may ask the husky musher if it is possible to go on a husky and/or reindeer ride (for an additional price).
