Lapland
and Sámi culture
The Sámi are the indigenous peoples of Lapland and the northern regions of Europe. Finland is home to approximately 8000 Sámi speaking three different Sámi languages: Northern, Inari and Skolt Sámi. COLOUR AND INTENSITY OF CULTURE Reindeer husbandry is still an essential part of the traditional lives of the Sámi and an important livelihood in the northern regions. The preservation of their own language and culture is a unique resource for the Sámi and the region. The Sámi culture can best be seen in the colourful costumes, skilful handicrafts and utensils. You can explore deeper into the Sámi culture and the countryside of the north at the Sámi Museum and Northern Lapland Nature Centre - Siida, in the village of Inari.
Reindeer calves are normally born in May or June.
LEATHER AND BONE USED AS MATERIALS Skilful handicrafts and decorations have their roots in the self sufficient economy and Sámi mythology. Many elegant decorative items were once utensils. The splendid jewellery and costumes have conveyed a message of wealth and often emotion.
Risku is a brooch used by women, the number and size of which told of the family's wealth. Nowadays is a valued gift. (Samekki/Petteri Laiti, Inari)
The Sámi use lassos to catch reindeer.

unforgettable moments for every day Northern Lapland has plenty of waterways for fishing, canoeing and boating. These peacefully flowing rivers, rushing rapid waters, sparkling wilderness lakes and wide range of fish populations provide many excellent fishing spots. FORGET FISHERMEN'S TALES Even the most exaggerated fishermen's tales always have a bit of truth. In the fish abundant rivers of Northern Lapland, the Tenojoki, Juutuajoki and Näätämöjoki, you can forget about exaggerated fishing tales, as the catch will be unbelievable. WHITE WATER RAFTING AND CANOEING The call of a free flowing river is very tempting. Accompanied by an experienced guide, you can ride the rapids in a rubber boat or enjoy a peaceful canoeing trip through the renowned gold regions of Northern Lapland. NATURAL PEACE AND TRANQUILLITY In Lapland you will feel free from pressure and hurry. If you don't want to take part in activities, you can just enjoy your stay and listen to the sound of silence - for here it is still possible.
You always need a spot of luck.
Excellent fishing waters: - Tenojoki - Näätämöjoki - Juutuajoki - Inarijärvi ... and plenty of other lakes and rivers.

Ruska - mag ag
agnificent
natural colours for fresh autumnal days Ruska is the name used for the colourful period of autumn when nature prepares for the coming winter. The green of the leaves disappears and is stored in the stem and roots of plants to use in the following spring. YELLOW, ORANGE AND RED The nature of Lapland dresses for autumn with blazing shades. The array of orange and red shades gently covers the rugged fells. Perhaps this is why autumn is the most popular time for hiking. AIR IS CLEAN AND FRESH The first frozen nights of September purify the air in a way that makes it seem easier to breathe. The bright and fresh autumn days encourage you to be active, go fishing, hunting and berry picking. RUSKA TRIPS AND EVENTS Take one of the weekly programme excursions or go by yourself to visit Siula House of Saariselkä to see Destination Northernmost Europe-exhibition or Siida in Inari.
Sooty pot coffee brewed over an open fire is always flavoursome.
Elegant handmade bags and pouches made from reindeer leather are excellent gifts and souvenirs. (SĂĄmi Duodji, Inari)
A mountain bike trip into the fell landscape coloured by ruska is exercise at its very best.

and unforgettable day trips to the North Cape The shores of the northern Arctic Ocean have numerous quaint fishing villages that are just a day trip away from Saariselkä. Magnificent fjord landscapes and idyllic little villages on the way to Vesisaari and Kirkkoniemi are great places to stop. TAKE TO THE SEAS WITH FISHERMEN The Arctic Ocean is a challenging, but also a very generous treasure chest for anglers. Many of us have already tasted the delicious red salmon, white cod or king crab from the Arctic Ocean. On a fishing trip with real fisherman you'll be able to try your luck and angling skills or experience how to fish with nets. EUROPE'S NORTHERNMOST POINT The North Cape, as its name would suggest, is Europe's northernmost point and the highlight of journeys to Northern Norway. The journey to this favoured tourist spot traverses fell highlands and offers plenty to see.
