SÁMI HISTORICAL SIGHTS

This snowmobile safari will take you across the frozen Lake Inari, also known as the Sámi sea, to some of the historical sites of the surroundings area. You will visit what was once the old Sámi winter village centre in Pielpajärvi, where now only the wooden wilderness church, build in 1760 remains. You will also pay your respects to the rugged ancient Sámi sacrificial island, “Ukko’s rock”. A picnic soup lunch will be offered by the open campfire.

This activity is part of our certified activity services due to Green Key certificate that was granted to us recently.

  • The 4 hour tour was just perfect: the good weather (despite the freezing -27º), the unbelievable landscapes, the thrill of the riding, the cozy lunch break at a typical Sami tent and, of course, the great attention, interesting stories and big smile of Anti, the guide. We were hesitant at the beginning because of the price but definitely was woth it!! 100% advisable 🙂
