Inari reindeers farm

During a trip in Inari (in finnish lapland), we visited a reindeer farm in a sámi family. The second generation of the family offers several activities. When we arrived, we have fed reinders, we had the possibility to touch them and the grandmother gave us a lot of information about them. After that we satisfied the examinater of ability to drive a reindeer sledge. With the licence, we are allowed to move, with due care and attention, in the wilds of Lapland. This licence is valid for 5 years.
