What to expect

Welcome to us at Áldu, Sire Márjá and her family who are Sámi reindeer herders living in the Arctic North of Norway, in the peaceful location of Karasjok village in Finnmark.

As Sámi reindeer herders we continue with a traditional custom where we tame selected male reindeers for sledding as one means of transportation. Every day at 9am and 9pm we feed the male reindeers located at our homestead and clean their surroundings. Join us for å unique moment when feeding our reindeer located at our homestead in a beautiful winter nature scenery.

While feeding the reindeer we will share more information and stories about our way of life as Sámi reindeer herders, our traditions and customs within reindeer husbandry in the Karasjok area in Finnmark (Arctic North of Norway). Which is also one of the last areas in the Nordic countries where reindeer can roam freely and where we still maintain our traditional nomadic lifestyle parts of the year.

Your guide and host Sire Márjá is English-speaking and loves to share her knowledge and stories about the way of living, traditions, and customs as Sámi reindeer herders.
